A couple weeks after moving Standards 1350 KRNT to FM as “Legend 104.5” and launching “ESPN 1350“, Saga Communications is launching an additional FM translator in the Des Moines market.
93.7 K229CC Winterset will complete its move to downtown Des Moines as Country “93.7 The Outlaw” rebroadcasting 102.5 KSTZ-HD2. Positioned as “Legends & Young Guns” the new format will bring competition to Cumulus’ combo of “97.3 Nash-FM” KHKI and “92.5 Nash Icon” KJJY.
K229CC will operate from the KCCI-TV tower in downtown Des Moines with 250 watts at 132 meters (Coverage Map).
In addition to the Cumulus KJJY/KHKI combo, this new Country station will also be competing against another FM translator, IHeartMedia’s K243CA 96.5 Country. That signal rebroadcasts KDRB 100.3 HD2.
