KHRW (92.7 FM, "The Eagle") is a radio station licensed to Ranchester, Wyoming, USA. It serves the Sheridan area, and carries a Classic hits format. The station is currently owned by Legend Communications of Wyoming, LLC.[1]
History
The station began as KHRW on September 1, 2006. At that time, the station carried a religious format and was owned by Horizon Christian Fellowship. It served the Ranchester area. In 2009, the station was sold to Global News Consultants, LLC. Legend Communications of Wyoming, LLC, operated the station following the sale.[2] The station returned to air in April 2011 with a classic hits format provided by Dial Global Networks. Following the dissolving of the satellite format in 2012, the station chose to operate via local programming instead. The format mirrors sister station KDDV, 101.5 licensed to Wright, Wyoming. Both are owned by the same company, Legend Communications, LLC.[3]
The station's tower is located southwest of Sheridan, near Red Grade Road. It shares the tower with KSGW-TV. Its studio is located at 324 Coffeen Avenue in Sheridan. The station added a weekly hour-long Spanish show in December 2014, hosted by a local high school teacher, making it the first station in Northeastern Wyoming to carry bi-lingual programming.[4] On November 19, 2014 it was announced that the station would be acquired by Legend Communications, sold from former owner Global News Consultants for $262,000, along with sister station KYTS 105.7 FM from Manderson, Wyoming.[5]
