    KOHO-FM (101.1 FM) is a radio station licensed to Leavenworth, Washington, United States, serving the Wenatchee area. The station is currently owned by Icicle Broadcasting, Inc.,[3] and airs Northwest Public Broadcasting's 24-hour Jazz service as a simulcast of KJEM in Pullman.

    History

    [edit]

    The station was assigned the call sign KLVH on March 25, 1994;[4] it signed on in 1998.[1] Its call sign was changed to KOHO-FM on August 20, 1999;[4] the new name was derived from coho salmon.[5] The station was founded by the Icicle Broadcasting Corporation, owned by Harriet Bullitt, and primarily played adult alternative and jazz.[6][7]

    On April 8, 2022, it was announced that the station will flip to Northwest Public Broadcasting's jazz network, based at KJEM, on April 19.[8] At Midnight on April 19, KOHO-FM's stream went silent for several hours before beginning the simulcast with KJEM during the 9 am hour.
