History

The first words on KVWM were spoken by station founder "Woody" Woodworth, on May 17, 1957. The station was originally an Easy Listening station, and later changed to an Oldies format. In 2004, the Oldies format was moved to another Petracom station, KSNX, and KVWM began simulcasting the NewsTalk format that is still carried on the station today.
