KADV (90.5 FM) is a non-commercial educational radio station licensed to serve Modesto, California. The station is a full-time satellite of KARM in Visalia. It is owned by Central Valley Christian Academy, a Seventh-Day Adventist institution, but is operated by KARM owner Harvest Broadcasting under a local marketing agreement.[1]


History

This station received its original construction permit from the Federal Communications Commission on July 6, 1987.[2] The new station was assigned the KADV call sign by the FCC on August 26, 1987.[3] KADV received its license to cover from the FCC on June 6, 1989.[4]

KADV aired a religious radio format.[5] However, in 2011, due to financial concerns, Central Valley Christian Academy agreed to turn over KADV's operations to KARM, which is also owned by Adventist interests, under an LMA.[1]
