History
In August 1975, KRNO signed on the air.[3] It was originally licensed in Reno, as the FM counterpart to KCBN1230 AM. The two stations were owned by B.B.C., Inc. While the AM station played Top 40 hits, KRNO had an easy listening format. In the 1980s, it gradually moved to soft adult contemporary music.
KRNO dropped its "Sunny" moniker as its prime positioner on March 24, 2014, to become "106.9 More FM."[4] The rebranding, despite the station's high ratings (the station ranked at #2 12+ among subscribing stations in the Fall 2013 Nielsen Audio ratings report[5]), was meant to reflect the updating of the station's playlist to focus on mostly songs released after 2000, with some 1980s and 90s hits.
On September 8, 2022, KRNO rebranded back to its previous brand as "Sunny 106.9".[6]
