KBDX (92.7 FM) is a radio station broadcasting a classic hits format. Licensed to Blanding, Utah, United States, the station is currently owned by William Boyle, through licensee San Juan Record Inc, and features programming from AP News.[2][3]

The station's music programming is classic hits, or a blend of 1970s and 1980s pop hits. For public affairs, KBDX carries national reports on the hour, along with weather updates provided by a meteorologist.

The station operates as a Class C2 FM facility, broadcasting its 600-watt signal from a high-elevation transmitter site on Abajo Peak, just west of Monticello, Utah. This location, at an elevation of 11,368 feet (3,465 m), gives the station a wider coverage area, making it audible from areas south of Shiprock, New Mexico, to north of Moab, Utah.

KBDX utilizes a network of FM translators to widen its broadcast area. They are in Moab, Utah: 101.5 FM (K268AV) and Cortez, Colorado: 96.1 FM (K241AO) [4]

History

Prior to KBDX signing on, the area was served by an AM station on 790 known as KUTA. That station signed off in the 1990s.[5] KBDX started as a construction permit in June of 1998, receiving its license to cover in 2001.
