KPCN-LP (95.9 FM, "Radio Movimiento") was a low-power FM radio station licensed to serve Woodburn, Oregon, United States. The station, launched in 2006, was last owned by Pineros y Campesinos Unidos del Noroeste ("Northwest Treeplanters and Farmworkers United").

KPCN-LP station aired a Spanish-language variety radio format.[2] The station targets its programming at the special interests of farm workers.[3]

The station shared its program hours with KPVN-LP, a similar station owned by the Centro de Servicios para Campesinos ("Farmworkers' Service Center"). That station surrendered its license in a letter dated December 20, 2019, a month after KPCN-LP ceased operations.

History

This station received its original construction permit from the Federal Communications Commission on May 17, 2005.[4] The new station was assigned the KPCN-LP call sign by the FCC on June 13, 2005.[5] KPCN-LP received its license to cover from the FCC on November 28, 2006.[6]

On April 1, 2008, the station applied to the FCC for authorization to move from their licensed broadcast frequency of 96.3 MHz to 95.9 MHz.[7] On the same day, they applied for special temporary authority to broadcast on the lower frequency.[8] While as of September 7, 2009, the Commission has only accepted the authorization request for filing,[7] they granted KPCN-LP the special temporary authority they sought on August 25, 2008, with a scheduled expiration date of February 25, 2009.[8] On that expiration date, the station filed for an extension of their special temporary authority but as of September 7, 2009, the Commission has only accepted this extension request for filing.[9] It made its final broadcast on November 20, 2019, and its license was canceled on August 21, 2020, having been supplanted by the higher-power KTUP (98.3 FM).
