A group of Las Vegas-area residents started "Nevada Public Radio" in 1975 as a non-profit organization. The group wanted to bring public radio to the state. It sought a construction permit from the Federal Communications Commission to build a station.

KNPR signed on the air on March 24, 1980; 44 years ago (March 24, 1980). It was founded by Lamar Marchese. KNPR was the first NPR member station in Nevada. (KUNR in Reno signed on in 1963 but didn't join NPR until 1981.)

In its early years, KNPR carried a mix of NPR news programs along with classical music. At first it broadcast at 89.5 MHz. The studios were at 5151 Boulder Highway. The station was powered at 7,500 watts, one-third of its current output.

By the early 2000s, Nevada Public Radio wanted to have two stations to serve both audiences, those who wanted to hear news and information and those who preferred classical music. In 2003, KNPR moved to 88.9 and switched to a full time news and talk format. Classical music moved to a new sister station, KCNV at 89.7.
