[edit]

KWOS debuted, as KLIK in 1954. In 1999, the station swapped call letters with an existing station on AM 1240, becoming KWOS.

The KWOS call sign referenced an earlier Jefferson City radio station, WOS, that was set up by Missouri Agriculture Commissioner Jewell A. Mayes to facilitate agricultural commerce.[3] WOS was first licensed on February 23, 1922,[4] and was deleted on March 27, 1936.[5] The originalKWOS on AM 1240 was established in 1937. The original 1240 KWOS was carried on 250 watts and featured programming fromMutual Broadcasting System, and from the 1950s until the mid-1970s, the station carried a Top 40 music format. KWOS also formerly carriedSt. Louis Cardinals baseball games for 68 years from 1938 until 2006.[6]
