Our Story
“98.3 KORA is one of four radio stations owned and operated by Brazos Valley Communications, Ltd in the Brazos Valley. The company owners are Texans with a long history as Texas broadcasters beginning in 1989.
The roots of the group began with KORA-AM at 1240 on the AM dial. The station’s first studio, located at 305 West 26th Street in Bryan, was the second station on the air in the area. D.C. Jones, the original owner and manager of the station started a long history of entertainment when he with a crew of nine others made their first broadcast on September 10, 1947 from Bryan, Texas. The popularity of the radio station, whose call sign was dedicated to Mr. Jones’ mother, Kora Jones, grew over the years to become the radio station of choice for the community, as a trusted source for the latest news, weather, and sports.
In 1966, the radio station reached two landmarks in its history when the station outgrew its original offices. As the station moved to its current location at 1240 Villa Maria Road in April of that year, it also launched its’ KORA-FM on 98.3 FM.
For six decades, the on-air personalities, sales force, administrative staff, and management have used the power and legacy of KORA to reach listeners in ways that benefited the less fortunate. The Radio M*A*S*H toy drive is known as the largest event of its kind in the Brazos Valley and annually provides toys for thousands of children who might otherwise be without gifts at Christmas.
