KOLN radio went on the air in September 1946 and though we weren't Lincoln's first radio station, we did initiate some significant changes in Lincoln's broadcast industry. KOLN brought to Lincoln its first television station (still broadcasting under the old radio call letters, KOLN Channel 10). After changing the radio call letters to the current KLIN, we were also the first to successfully network University of Nebraska football to stations outside the state and as far away as California. Since the beginning, KLIN's studios were in downtown Lincoln, but in the early 70's, plans were unveiled for a new home at 44th and O Street.
