AM 1220 is a Mexican clear channel frequency; because of this, KLDC broadcasts at a low power at night of only 11 watts to prevent interference with other stations. Daytime power is also fairly low, at 660 watts. By contrast, KOA in Denver runs at 50,000 watts around the clock.
History
KLDC signed on in September, 1954 as KFSO.
