From 2000 to 2006, it broadcast online and on campus TV sets as "KDCS Bulldog Radio".[1] Until 2015, it was a time-shared station with KGVC-LP of Grand View College, later Grand View University; when the license for KGVC-LP was surrendered, it allowed KDRA-LP to go full-time on 94.1.[4] On June 10, 2019, Drake University notified the FCC that KDRA-LP would cease operations on or before August 15, 2019, and that it would be surrendering the station's license.[5] Its license was cancelled on January 5, 2021.
