Source-derived summary

KNDH is an American FM radio station licensed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to broadcast on 96.7 MHz serving Carbondale, Colorado.

History

KNDH debuted as KUUR "Your Radio", serving the Aspen area with its translators including 101.1 (Aspen, Snowmass) and 107.7 (Glenwood Springs). Your Radio described its programming format as cool contemporary music. The station was founded by Marcos A. Rodriguez and owned by his Colorado Radio Marketing, LLC. Licensed to Carbondale, Colorado, the station was the first radio station in that area with the ability to do digital broadcasting. KUUR became the first American radio station to broadcast its programs in Bethlehem when, in December 2012, it was involved in a special arrangement with Radio Mawwal 101.7 FM there, which saw the broadcast of a section of KUUR's Christmas programming on that station throughout the Christmas season.

Effective July 22, 2021, Colorado Radio Marketing traded KUUR and its dependent translators to Colorado Public Radio in 2021 for KKPC (1230 AM) in Pueblo, which the network no longer needed. "Your Radio" was replaced with a simulcast of "Indie 102.3" KVOQ on May 26, and the call sign was changed to KNDH on May 27.

Translators

In addition to the main station, KNDH is relayed by several translators to widen its broadcast area.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “american FM radio station” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

Maps, plans, fabric surveys and administrative records can establish how the site’s name, extent and function changed over time. The source revision retrieved here is dated Feb 24, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q6339783. Authority coordinates are 39.419, -107.369. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 1 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2012, 2021 and 1230.

Critical limits

Architectural summaries often privilege surviving fabric and can understate demolished phases, contested use or displaced communities. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Treat names, boundaries and functions as historically changeable. Maps, plans, inventories and administrative records can clarify what the place meant at different dates.
