Format change edit

On November 28, 2013, KETT switched from an Active Rock format (99.3 The Rock) to an Adult Contemporary to a religious format under the new name of Spirit 99.3.

Ownership edit

In May 2013, Armada Media and Legacy Broadcasting traded some stations in Nebraska, with two stations in Holdrege (KUVR/1380 and KMTY/97.7) going to Legacy and eight others in the Scottsbluff and North Platte markets [KZTL/93.5 (Paxton-North Platte) and KRNP/100.7 (Sutherland-North Platte) KOAQ/690 (Terrytown), KOLT/1320 (Scottsbluff), KMOR/93.3 (Gering), KETT/99.3 (Mitchell), KOZY-FM/101.3 (Bridgeport), KHYY/106.9 (Minatare)] going to Armada Media. A purchase price was not announced.

Effective January 17, 2020, Legacy Broadcasting sold KETT and several sister stations to Nebraska Rural Radio Association for $1.75 million. Nebraska Rural Radio Association simultaneously flipped KETT to VSS Catholic Communications, Inc. for $40,000; VSS flipped it to a religious format.
