KLRG was formerly a gospel station owned by Joe Kinlow and Family until his death in 2015. Prior Formats include the Tan Talk Radio Network, and a Country Station KKDI owned by Cliff Packer from Benton, Arkansas.

The station was first licensed in 1982, and held the callsign KKDI.[1][2] The station originally broadcast at 1540 kHz with a power of 250 watts, and operated during daytime hours only.[3]

KLRG has separate transmitter sites for day/critical hours and night. It has been granted a U.S. Federal Communications Commission construction permit to move the night site to the day/critical hours site and decrease night power to 200 watts.[4]
