The History of Our Station
In 2008, we signed on the air as "Classic Country 94.7 FM". A few years later, we changed our name to "Kixx FM", but continued to play the classic country music that many people love. Our station signal reaches northern Maine and Western New Brunswick, Canada. Today, we are known as "Classic Country 94.7 Kixx FM."
