History
The station was previously owned by the University of Sioux Falls, with the call letters KCFS, and was purchased in September 2015 for the sum of 1.5 million dollars. The call sign was changed on September 1, 2015 to KBAD-FM.
The station permanently ceased operation on September 23, 2017 and was advertised for sale, citing result of on-going litigation between then-owner Chuck Brennan and his other Dollar Loan Center businesses against the state of South Dakota, related to recent lending laws ruling according to press release published on http://www.kbad945.com/.
Effective June 21, 2018, Brennan's Badlands Airtime, LLC sold KBAD-FM to Real Presence Radio for $945,000.[6] The new owners changed the station's call sign to KGWD on July 3, 2018.
