KERE, Denver Bill Harris (Bill Hartley) writes: KERE, at 710 AM, was the first serious challenger to KLAK-AM and FM (now KYGO and KWMX-FM respectively). KLAK was the top country station for many years. Neither station ultimately survived, although now KYGO plays country as sister station to tremendously successful KYGO-FM, owned by Jefferson Pilot.
