KONO is the fourth oldest radio station in San Antonio, Texas, USA, First air in 1927. Callsign meaning: K San AntONiO. KONO began as a hobby in the early days of radio broadcasting by Eugene Roth in a room over his garage in downtown San Antonio. Later, Eugene Roth's son, Jack Roth, inherited the station from his father. Its original format was country & western. In the sixties, KONO (the Big 86) was one of the leading "top-40" stations in San Antonio for several years. KONO began the 1990s getting further squeezed within the oldies format.
During that time KBKK 107.9 FM started broadcasting KFAN's previous format from Johnson City, Texas about a 1 year later acquiring the KFAN calls. KONO-FM, formerly part of an oldies AM and FM simulcast, now features a playlist of hit songs from the co-owned A.M. station's long history of Top 40 music from the mid '60s to the late '70s.
The simulcast on KONO 860 and 101.1 was of the longest AM/FM simulcasts in the country until KONO 860 flipped to CBS Sports Radio 860 on January 31, 2014.
KONO-FM uses the slogan "San Antonio's Greatest Hits". Playlist artists include The Eagles, Spinners, Al Green, Supremes, Fleetwood Mac, Elton John, Billy Joel and others from the '60s through the mid-80's era of hit music radio.
