KTRU broadcasts a Gospel music format to the greater Iola, Kansas, area as part of The Gospel Station radio network.[2]
In October 2007, Grace Public Radio applied to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for a construction permit for a new broadcast radio station to serve Girard, Kansas. The FCC granted this permit on October 8, 2008, with a scheduled expiration date of October 8, 2011.[3] The new station was assigned call sign "KFKB" on January 1, 2009.[1]
In August 2010, with the station still under construction, the permit holder applied to change the new station's city of license from Girard to La Harpe, Kansas. The FCC issued a new permit to make this change on April 5, 2011, with a scheduled expiration of October 8, 2011.[4] The station applied for, and was assigned, new call sign "KTRU" by the FCC on May 17, 2011.[1] After construction and testing were completed in October 2011, the station was granted its broadcast license on October 28, 2011.[5]
