For the First Time Since 1951, Laguna Beach Has a Local Radio Station

There are so many things to love about KX 93.5 (a.k.a. KXRN-FM), a station that officially launched out of studios at 1833 South Coast Highway one week ago.

Although the station is also online, it’s real-world transmitter power is only 50 watts, making it a truly local FM signal. It is owned, according to a report in the Long Beach Press-Telegram, by Laguna Hills’ Shepherd of the Hills Church. And per radio historian Jim Hiliker, it’s the first Laguna-local station since KTED 1520 AM was broadcasting from 1949 to 1951.
