KLIN (1400 AM) is a radio station broadcasting a News Talk Information format.[1] Licensed to Lincoln, Nebraska, USA, the station serves the Lincoln area. The station is currently owned by NRG Media and features programing from ABC Radio, Premiere Radio Networks and Fox News Radio.[2]
KLIN was founded in 1946 with the call letters KOLN. Station owner, John Fetzer, went on to found KOLN-TV in 1953.[3] Fetzer broke up his broadcasting empire in 1985, and the two stations went their separate ways, with the television station keeping the original calls.
In August 2007, Triad Broadcasting sold KLIN to NRG Media.[4]
On May 3, 2012 KLIN began simulcasting on FM translator K233AN 94.5 FM.[5]
KLIN is the flagship station of Nebraska Cornhuskers football and basketball, sharing that status with Omaha's KFAB, as well as an affiliate for the Detroit Lions Radio Network. The Lions affiliation stems from the presence of former Nebraska All-American defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh on Detroit's roster.
