KAOX (107.9 FM) is a news/talk formatted radio station licensed to Shelley, Idaho. Known as "NewsTalk 107.9", the station is owned by Sandhill Media Group.

History

KAOX received a construction permit on 107.3 from Kemmerer, Wyoming on November 8, 1995. It was owned by Jimmy Ray Carroll. After an extension of the construction permit, the station received a license to cover on December 22, 2000. On September 21, 2021, the station was sold again to Chaparral Broadcasting, joining KMER.[1] The station was sold in 2004 to Simmons Media, a Salt Lake City based radio group.[2] In 2014, Simmons transferred their properties to Broadway Media, including KAOX.[3]

The station was known as "The X" and covered much of southwestern Wyoming. The identification mentioned the cities of Evanston, Rock Springs, and Green River.[4]

In 2016, in order to complete frequency changes as a result of a shuffle of stations in Salt Lake City, Broadway took KAOX off 107.3, and moved the station to Shelley, Idaho, near Idaho Falls. The station was silent for a period of time with the allotment of 107.9. Broadway sold KAOX to Frandsen Media for $25,000.[5] Frandsen Media's Sandhill Media Group brought the station back on air with a news/talk format.[6]
