KYNO 940AM

KYNO 940AM KYNO 940 brings you Boss Radio now bigger than ever, broadcasting on 50,000 watts! The rest…is radio history.

KYNO is where legendary Program Director Bill Drake and owner Gene Chenault began their incredible partnership. The year was 1963 and within a decade, the Drake-sound was the most copied format on American radio. After KYNO claimed it's top spot in radio in Fresno, Bill Drake hired radio competitors, Jacobs, Morgan & Terry -- and these four future radio programming giants took their combined talen

t to Southern California, where it wasn't long before KHJ and ‘Boss Radio’ were #1 in Los Angeles. For many years, KYNO continued to be the 'proving ground' for on-air promotions such as The Buried Treasure, the KYNO Millionaire, The Stingray Giveaway, The Black Box and many more. If ideas worked on KYNO, they would be implemented at stations across the country. During the period from 1963 through the mid 80's, KYNO wasn't just a radio station -- it was the soundtrack of life for tens of thousands of Central California Valley. Today, you can still hear the voice of Bill Drake, those famous Johnny Mann jingles and ‘The Greatest Hits on Earth’ at 940AM, K-Y-N-O!
