KNON is a non-profit, listener-supported radio station, deriving its main source of income from on-air pledge drives and from underwriting or sponsorships by local small businesses. KNON went on air on August 6, 1983 with 10,000 watts of power. In March 1990, KNON raised it's power to 55,000  watts. The signal covers a radius of approximately 60 miles from Cedar Hill. It extends from Mckinney, Hillsboro, Corsicana and from Ft. Worth to Greenville.

KNON is on the air 24 hours, seven days a week, with the most diverse programming in Texas. The volunteer disc jockeys play their own music or conduct talk shows during specifically targeted programs.The program variety can be seen on our schedule. Each music format has its own unique demography, but the one thing that the entire KNON audience shares is that they listen to KNON, rather that use it for background noise.
