KSDA is the call sign for the radio station "Joy 92" broadcast at 91.9 FM from Agana Heights, Guam, as well as the shortwave station broadcasting from Agat, Guam.
KSDA began as "Adventist World Radio-Asia" (AWR-Asia) in 1987 and continues to broadcast in shortwave to various countries in Asia. In 1990, AWR launched a local FM station at 91.9 MHz. Joy 92 first broadcast from AWR's Agat studio, and later from a studio at the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Agana Heights.
When AWR shifted its mission away from local broadcasting, Joy 92's operation was passed onto the Guam-Micronesia Mission in the early 1990s. In 2000, Adventist churches and institutions on Guam nominated eligible individuals to form the Good News Broadcasting Corporation (GNBC), which oversees Joy 92's operation and received Joy 92's FCC license from AWR.
The KSDA call sign was originally used by the campus/community FM radio station of La Sierra College (now La Sierra University) in Riverside, California. The radio operation of the college became independent and was an ancestor of the current KSGN.
