KCRR (97.7 FM) is a radio stationinIowa serving Waterloo, Cedar Falls, and surrounding cities with a classic rock format. This station is owned by Townsquare Media. Elwin Huffman serves as morning news host. KCRR carries the Dwyer and Michaels Morning Show.
On August 30, 2013, a deal was announced in which Townsquare Media would acquire 53 Cumulus stations, including KCRR, for $238 million. The deal was part of Cumulus' acquisition of Dial Global; Townsquare and Dial Global are both controlled by Oaktree Capital Management.[2][3] The sale to Townsquare was completed on November 14, 2013; KCRR was one of three stations (along with KKHQ-FM and KOEL-FM) that were placed in a divestiture trust for eventual resale within two years.[4] In December 2016, the Federal Communications Commission approved Townsquare's request to reacquire the stations from the divestiture trust.[5]
