In March 1983, KYMN became the first station in Minnesota and first daytimer in the world to adopt AM stereo.[4] Beginning with the Harris System and later switching to the C-QUAM system.[5] KYMN has since discontinued broadcasting in AM stereo.
A new FM signal, K236CD, launched in 2016, sending the station's signal to the surrounding communities of Cannon Falls, Nerstrand, Faribault and Lonsdale.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
