KLGO is Austin and central Texas', United States, first Christian Teaching and Talk radio station. KLGO is known as The WORD 99.3 and 98.5. It began broadcasting in its new FM home on January 20, 2006 after operating for 30 years on the AM band as KIXL 970.
The WORD 99.3 and 98.5 is also known through its call letters as KLGO and features an outstanding lineup of the very best from today's Christian communicators like Chuck Swindoll, Dr. James Dobson, Dave Ramsey, Hank Hanegraaff, J. Vernon McGee and many more. The WORD 99.3 and 98.5 is committed to a Christian worldview in all its programming.
The call letters KLGO are very significant. The Great Commandment passage in Matthew 22:36-40 proclaims Keep Loving God and Others.

In June of 2006, KLGO added translator station K253AN broadcasting at 98.5 to better cover downtown and central Austin.
