NAFB Farm Broadcaster Lynn Ketelsen has announced the purchase of KNXR Rochester, a 100,000 watt station featuring the "Greatest Hits", owned by Ketelsen and John Linder. KNXR has been accepted as an NAFB Station and will air farm reports voiced by Linda Brekke and Ketelsen.
"KNXR is Rochester Minnesota's only NAFB Station, and shows our commitment to serving both city and rural listeners with local information. " We believe the NAFB designation is an important part of the heritage of this station, and it has coverage throughout Southeast Minnesota with an exceptional signal across the region." It is located at 97.5 FM.
The station, known as "Minnesota 97.5" will be live and local and is locally owned. It will be an affiliate of the Linder Farm Network as well as originating locally produced farm reports. According to Ketelsen, "We have a 25 plus year history in the Rochester and Southeast Minnesota ag market. In addition to attending literally dozens of local farm events in the area, Jeff Stewart of our network was a local Farm Director in Rochester and knows the area well."
KNXR will be a great way for agribusiness to reach this important agricultural area in Minnesota and says they are proud to be the only NAFB certified station in Rochester."
