History
This station received its original construction permit from the Federal Communications Commission on June 9, 2005. The new station was assigned the call letters KWDP by the FCC on March 29, 2006.
In February 2008, Horizon Christian Fellowship reached an agreement to transfer the construction permit to Cowan Broadcasting LLC. The transfer was approved by the FCC on April 18, 2008, and the transaction was consummated on April 30, 2008. During the sale, the station applied to the FCC for new call letters and the station was assigned the current KNLX call letters by the FCC on April 10, 2008.
The station's second application for a license to cover was accepted for filing on July 7, 2008. As of September 24, 2009, the Commission has taken no further action on this license application, pending a licensing issue with KRSK (105.1 FM) in Salem, Oregon.
