KMRO (90.3 FM) is a non-commercial radio station licensed to Camarillo, California, United States, and broadcasting to the areas of Ventura County and southern Santa Barbara County. Owned by the Educational Media Foundation, it is the flagship station of the Radio Nueva Vida network. In addition to its extensive network of translator stations, KMRO is simulcast on two full-power repeaters in California: KEYQ (980 AM) in Fresno and KGZO (90.9 FM) in Shafter.
History
KMRO
KMRO was first signed on January 19, 1987, by The Association for Community Education, Inc.[2] KMRO is the flagship station of Radio Nueva Vida, a Spanish-language Christian talk and teaching radio network.
KEYQ
KEYQ first went on the air on October 14, 1957. It was purchased by Americom in 1967.[3] From September 1992 to May 1993, the station held the call letters KFSO, after which it reverted to the KEYQ calls.[4] In 1997, Jonna Hooker sold KEYQ to The Association for Community Education, Inc. for $200,000.[5]
KGZO
The station signed on July 19, 1993, as KLOD; it was owned by High Adventure Ministries, Inc. KLOD changed its call sign to KGZO on April 5, 1996.[6] In 1997, High Adventure Ministries sold KGZO to The Association for Community Education for $240,000.[7]
EMF acquires Nueva Vida
In December 2024, the Educational Media Foundation reached an agreement to take over the Association for Community Education as its sole member, continuing its activities as a subsidiary. This will therefore result in the acquisition of its stations (including KMRO, KEYQ and KGZO) by the EMF pending FCC approval; the transaction will have no financial consideration.[8][9][10] The acquisition was completed on February 7, 2025.[11]
