History
KERI broadcast a News/talk format as Newstalk 1410 KERN until January 1, 2009, when a frequency swap with sister station 1180 AM (previously KERI) was completed. The KERN call sign had been used on the 1410 AM frequency from 1941 until they were moved to 1180 AM on December 30, 2008.

In October 1940 it moved to 1380 kHz. In March 1941 the NARBA agreement reallocation saw it move to 1410, its current frequency.
