KLLB (1510 AM) was a Christian/Gospel formatted radio station licensed to West Jordan, Utah. The station served the Salt Lake City area. The station was owned by United Security Financial, Inc.[2]
The station signed off air every night, usually at or around local sunset. Other stations such as KGA from Spokane, Washington could be heard in its place. Because KGA was a Class A station until 2008, KLLB had to sign off at night to protect KGA's skywave service area from interference.[3] Since the station's tower was constructed in the 1980s, a housing development had been built around the tower and ultimately a street will replace the land where the tower now stands.[4][5] The station had applied for a construction permit to move its tower farther west near Utah State Route 111. This application has since been dismissed.
The station shared its tower with KTKK (630 AM) Sandy, Utah, whose tower was also coincidentally displaced due to a housing development.[4] KTKK has since signed off the air.
