It began as a 500 watt daytimer called KABH. Over its early years it was a middle of road station. In the late 1960's and early 1970's it diversified to Pop and Rock Music up until about 5 PM then "Rogelio" would sign on for a few hours with Spanish language and Spanish music broadcasting then "Rick V" or "John M" would take over the mic playing a variety of Hard Rock up until sundown. In this time frame the station also promoted a local concert in the early 1970's with the rock band "Josefus" playing. I believe it was held around the old fairgrounds area off I-20 in the east end of town. Early Partners in cross town KNFM acquired an interest in KABH and the letters were changed to KNAM. About 1979 the station changed owners, relocated its office, and changed calls to KMND for "Command". As an affiliate of the Dallas Cowboys, KMND carried the Wade Phillips show and the Dallas Cowboys daily report, but they did not have the contract to air the games. Sister station KGEE/KNFM aired the Cowboys games in the Odessa-Midland area. As an affiliate of ESPN Radio, the station carried commercials for the ESPN Radio College Football Game of the Week, the BCS on ESPN Radio, the NIT on ESPN Radio, and Major League Baseball on ESPN Radio, but the station only aired college bowl games that were sold as part of ESPN Radio coverage nationwide. In 2009 they ended up adding the full broadcast schedule beginning with the NBA on ESPN Radio and
