On Thursday, a longtime institution in Shawnee celebrated its 90th anniversary.
Local radio station KGFF, Shawnee first hit the air waves at 9 a.m. on a Tuesday morning Dec. 10, 1930.
And it has continued serving the area ever since.
KGFF General Manager Mike Askins said, though the station had already been in operation for a few years, it was Ross Porter who brought it to Shawnee.
The earliest records on file indicate the Wallace Radio Institute put KGFF on the air in January 1927, Askins said.
