KFAB (1110 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station in Omaha, Nebraska, with studios and offices on Underwood Avenue in Omaha. It broadcasts a news/talk format and is owned by iHeartMedia, Inc. KFAB is a Class A clear channel station, operating at 50,000 watts, the maximum power for commercial AM stations, from a transmitter on South 60th Street at Capehart Road in Papillion. A single tower beams the full power during the day. At night, power is fed to a three-tower array in a directional pattern to avoid interfering with WBT Charlotte, the other Class A station on 1110 AM. Due to its high power and Nebraska's excellent ground conductivity, KFAB's daytime signal is heard in most of Eastern Nebraska and Western Iowa, with at least grade B coverage as far as Kansas City, Topeka, Sioux City and Des Moines. At night, even though it must direct its signal north–south to protect WBT, it can be heard across most of the western half of North America with a good radio. KFAB is licensed by the U.S. Federal Communications Commission to broadcast in the HD Radio (hybrid) format. Programming Gary Sadlemyer, with KFAB for more than four decades, hosts "The KFAB Morning News" on weekdays. Local talk shows are heard in late mornings with Scott Voorhees and in late afternoons with Ian Swanson. The rest of the weekday schedule is nationally syndicated conservative talk shows from co-owned Premiere Networks: Clay Travis and Buck Sexton, Glenn Beck and "Coast to Coast AM with George Noory." Weekends feature shows on health, money, cars, gardening and cooking. Weekend hosts include Joe Pags, Dana Loesch, "Sunday Night Live with Bill Cunningham," "Somewhere in Time with Art Bell" and "Our American Stories with Lee Habeeb." Most hours begin with Fox News Radio. History Early years in Lincoln Just before signing on, the station was licensed on . It was owned by the Nebraska Buick Auto Company in Lincoln. Initially, it was given the call sign KFRR from an alphabetic list maintained by the United States Department of Commerce. However, at the request of Nebraska Buick's owner Harold E. Sidles, prior to the station's December 4 debut, the call sign KFAB was substituted, reportedly standing for "Keep Following A Buick". On November 11, 1928, under the provisions of the Federal Radio Commission's General Order 40, KFAB was reassigned to a "clear channel" frequency of 770 kilocycles. In
