History
The 630 kHz frequency is perhaps best known as the longtime home of KDWB, from 1959 until 1986. For almost two decades, they were a heated rival of the original WDGY, located at 1130 kHz. When WDGY dropped their call letters to become KFAN in 1991, KDWB's owner adopted the abandoned WDGY call sign for 630 kHz, where they remained until 2008.
