KWBI-FM

KWBI-FM (91.1) was a Christian-radio signal in Morrison, serving the Denver area. If you tuned in to Christian programming on 91.1 in the 70s, 80s or 90s, this is the station you remember.

History

Colorado Christian University’s institutional timeline records KWBI’s start in 1971. The station became KLDV on December 26, 2000, and the FCC’s historical call-sign record backs up both the frequency and the change.
