History

92.7 had the call sign KULW with an oldies format as "Kool 92.7" in 1999. In 2001, it changed to "B93" with a country music format, with the call sign KFAB-FM. B93 changed its name to "Outlaw Country" in 2003. KFAB-FM became Fargo's Adult Hits outlet (also known as "Jack") with the "My FM" monkier, playing hits from all music genres from the past four decades. The format only lasted five months from May to October in 2005 before reverting back to their previous format as "Outlaw Country", though it was tweaked to classic country.

KFAB-FM's owner at the time, Clear Channel Communications, sold its Fargo stations to James Ingstad's Radio Fargo-Moorhead, Inc. on January 19, 2007. KFAB-FM was transferred to Northwestern College, for WDAY-FM's use of KFNW-FM's tower and the FCC ownership limit of the Fargo market was 6 stations, though Clear Channel grandfathered KDAM, the 7th station.

KFAB-FM signed off the air on January 19, 2007 transitioning ownership from Clear Channel Communications (now Radio Fargo-Moorhead, Inc.) to Northwestern College, and signed on as KFNL "Legacy 92.7" with an adult standards format on February 5, 2007. Since then it has switched to an adult contemporary Christian format concentrating on praise and worship music.
