KMHM marks station's 10th anniversary

The home of "Southern Gospetality" -- radio station KMHM 104.1 FM -- is celebrating its 10th anniversary throughout August. The station has its roots in Southern Illinois as WXAN 103.9 FM, which first signed on the air in 1982 with little more than a box of gospel records to play. It eventually expanded to Marble Hill, Mo., where KMHM is now based. On Aug. 4, 1995, "The New FM 104" first signed on the air as the second "Home of Southern Gospetality." Station manager Joy DuPrey said the station celebrated by counting down the Top 250 songs played on KMHM during its first decade.
