History

Prior to 1948, the then-unbuilt station had the call sign KMFR and was licensed to Sun River Broadcasting Company. After the station was licensed to Montana Farmer Broadcasting Corporation, that company requested a change in call sign to KMON. The request was approved by the Federal Communications Commission in February 1948.{{cite news|title=KMFR Now KMON|url=http://www.americanradiohistory.com/Archive-BC/BC-1948/1948-02-23-BC.pdf|accessdate=8 November 2014|agency=Broadcasting|date=February 23, 1948}}
