It was 1941. War raged in Europe, as FDR watched and waited. Pearl Harbor was still 9 months away, but the residents of the Bighorn Basin needed a pipeline of news and information of events from the other side of the globe, which would eventually have ramifications in their very own backyard. Al Myers saw the need and responded, and KPOW was introduced to the world on March 31st. Bringing a much needed voice to Northern Wyoming, KPOW always sought to inform and entertain, and, for the last 78 years has always strived to do just that.
