KLDR (98.3 FM) is a radio station broadcasting an Adult Top 40 music format.[1] Licensed to Harbeck-Fruitdale, Oregon, United States, the station serves Southern Oregon, including Grants Pass, Medford, and the Illinois Valley. The station is currently owned by Grants Pass Broadcasting Corp.[2]
The station came on the air in 1991 as KAJO-FM, an FM simulcast of AM 1270 KAJO.
In 1992, the simulcast was discontinued, as the station became “The Leader” KLDR, with a more gold-based Adult Contemporary format. The first song played on KLDR was “Africa” from Toto. Within a couple of years after its launch, KLDR moved in the direction of Adult Top 40.
