 The following is a production of New Mexico State University. On this very spot behind the building that bears his name, Ralph Willis Goddard built KOB Radio, licensed to New Mexico State University in 1920. Goddard in a nine-year period developed New Mexico's first radio station. It was a golden era of radio, and KOB followed suit by programming radio dramas, interviews, farm shows, and live music. On New Year's Eve, 1929, Dean Goddard was tragically electrocuted while at the station's transmitter. Soon after, KOB moved to Albuquerque where it still operates today as KKOB. The Goddard legacy continues at NMSU as KRWG FM established in 1964 proudly bears the initials of Ralph W. Goddard. For the early years, I'm Carla Aragon. This has been a centennial celebration minute from New Mexico State University. The preceding was a production of New Mexico State University.
