History
In a history submitted by General Manager Ricky Chase, the then-KEOR came on the air in 1968 as a Country music station, changing to Rock and roll in the 1970s. In 1984, KEOR changed to Southern Gospel, after brokering the station to Sonshine Ministries. In the 1990s, Sonshine would broker weekdays, while Saturday mornings would be brokered to Ed and Jolene Bullard, who used their time to play Country and Bluegrass music. KEOR would be sold to Edward J. and Leticia Vega in 2012.
On November 21, 2012, the station changed its call sign to the current KETU.
