Radio station in Palm Springs, California
KCOD (1450 AM ) was a radio station licensed to Palm Springs, California , United States. It served the Coachella Valley area. The station was last owned by College of the Desert . Programming was also simulcast on translator station K260DE (99.9 FM ) in Palm Desert .
The transmitter and broadcast tower were located between Palm Springs and Cathedral City on Dinah Shore Drive. According to the Antenna Structure Registration database, the tower was 52 m (171 ft ) tall.[2]
History [ edit ]
The station began broadcasting in 1954, and held the call sign KPAL.[3] On February 9, 1971, its call sign was changed to KPSI.[3] KPSI aired a middle of the road (MOR) format in the 1970s.[1] [4] By 1983, the station had adopted a talk format.[5]
On September 1, 1997, its call sign was changed to KGAM and on September 15, it adopted an adult standards format.[6] [7] In 1998, talk programming was added during the day and it eventually returned to a full-time news-talk format, airing syndicated talk shows, with hosts such as Michael Savage , G. Gordon Liddy , and Dave Ramsey .[8] [9] [10] It also aired CNN Headline News and Thru the Bible with J. Vernon McGee mornings and broadcast Los Angeles Lakers , Angels , and Oakland Raiders games.[9] [10]
On February 2, 2010, the station's call sign was changed to KPTR, and it became a progressive talk station, a format and call sign transferred from 1340 AM (which became KWXY ).[6] [11] R & R donated KPTR to College of the Desert on November 1, 2016.[12] [13] The college elected to operate the station as a noncommercial station; in preparation for the change, R & R took KPTR silent on July 10, 2016.[14] The progressive talk format was relocated to KWXY; that station would go silent as well one month later.[15]
KPTR changed its call letters to KCOD on January 8, 2017;[16] in a December 2016 filing with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), College of the Desert said that it would return the station to the air by April.[17] The station resumed broadcasting May 27, 2017.[18] College of the Desert had already operated KCOD since 2011 as an Internet radio station from studios on the college's campus in Palm Desert; in 2018, KCOD moved to the adjacent former KEZN studios.[19]
After having been silent since August 6, 2020, KCOD and K260DE's licenses were surrendered on August 2, 2021, and were cancelled the following day.[20] [21]
