KSRC
KSRC (101.5 FM) is a commercial radio station licensed to Watkins, Colorado, and serving the Denver metropolitan area. It is owned by Pillar of Fire and airs a Christian adult contemporary format branded as "Star 101.5". Its studios are located on Parker Road in Aurora.
KSRC has an effective radiated power (ERP) of 97,000 watts at 625 meters (2,051 ft) in height above average terrain (HAAT), and broadcasts from a tower about 60 miles northeast of Denver near Leader, shared with sister station KFCO. Because of the station's weak signal strength in Downtown Denver, as well as in the western suburbs (Arvada, Lakewood, and Wheat Ridge), there is a 20,000 watt co-channel booster station in Commerce City, KSRC-FM1, which helps the signal reach closer to Denver.
KSRC was originally KFTM-FM at 101.7 MHz, licensed to Fort Morgan. It had an adult contemporary format and changed call signs to KBRU, later KBRU-FM, in 1976. It later switched its city of license to Strasburg, Colorado, and moved its dial position to 101.5 MHz.
The station was branded as "101.5 Martini On The Rockies" as KTNI, airing an adult standards format.
In February 2008, it became "Indie" with a modern rock format. When the station changed, they used an on-air clicking sound effect of an iPod being randomly selected to play a song supposedly on the station's music playlist, to suggest the next song could be anything that was available on the device. This approach was used for a couple of months until it lost popularity with listeners.
According to FCC filings, the station's owner (KBRU-FM, LLC - a subsidiary of Denver Radio Company) sought bankruptcy protection in February 2008 and has since emerged from bankruptcy.
On January 16, 2009, the debtor in possession for Denver Radio Company received permission to operate the station temporarily without a main studio within 25 miles of the community of license, which is a requirement for all commercial radio stations. It planned to run the station from studios also used by KONN in Aurora, Colorado.
The station was sold to Max Media in 2009. Upon the completion of the sale, on July 31, 2009, at 9 a.m., KTNI dropped the alternative rock format, which moved online as Indie303.com, and began a week-long stunt with a "stripper format", calling itself "The Pole." The stunt was sponsored by local strip club Shotgun Willie's. At 4 p.m. on August 6, KTNI flipped to conservative talk as "101.5 The Truth."
