History

[edit]

Radio Assist Ministry (doing business as World Radio Link) intended on signing on a religious formatted station at 107.5 FM.[4] Instead, in June 2009, KXRV signed on with an adult contemporary format as "107.5 The River."[5]

In October 2010, it was announced that Radio Assist Ministry was selling the station to Radio Bismarck Mandan, LLC (headed by Larry Schmidt).[4] Radio Bismarck-Mandan previously owned radio stations in the Bismarck market before selling them to Clear Channel in 2004.[6]

On November 1, 2011, KXRV switched to a classic hits format, following the sale to Radio Bismarck-Mandan, and was rebranded as "MOJO 107.5."[7]
