History
Prior to 1948, the then-unbuilt station had the call sign KMFR and was licensed to Sun River Broadcasting Company. After the station was licensed to Montana Farmer Broadcasting Corporation, that company requested a change in call sign to KMON. The request was approved by the Federal Communications Commission in February 1948.[1]
