KCRC Celebrates 100 Year Anniversary

ENID, OK - (August 19, 2026) Curtis Tucker, Owner, Enid Buzz

Chisholm Trail Broadcasting’s long-running AM station KCRC is celebrating 100 years on the air.

On Tuesday, KCRC received a proclamation during the Mayor and Board of Commissioners Regular Meeting in the Council Chambers of the City Administration Building.

Additionally, Enid Mayor David Mason held a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Wednesday at the station.

Both the proclamation and ribbon-cutting commemorated KCRC’s century of service to the Enid community and Northwest Oklahoma.

First on air in Oklahoma City August 19, 1926, the call letters were KGCB.

The Champlin Oil Refinery Co bought the frequency and moved it to Enid in 1929 changing the call letters to KCRC.

The studios moved to the tower location in the 1960’s. 1390 was almost always a news and talk format, then sports talk.

KCRC is one of the oldest continuous St. Louis Cardinals affiliates, broadcasting baseball games back to the Dizzy Dean era.
