“KID has served the eastern Idaho market since 1928,” Mecham said, “and we are both pleased and excited to substantially expand its impact and coverage with the addition of three more frequencies, which not only will substantially expand its geographical reach but also, and very significantly, will enhance its night-time coverage.

“For a long time, KID has been, and continues to be, the predominant news and information resource in the region,” he continued.

“With the addition of 106.3 FM, it now will be heard regionally from Ashton to Pocatello. Additionally, we are very pleased to expand the KID brand into the Teton County radio market, and in the process enhance the synergy between the eastern Idaho and Jackson markets.”
