==History==
The predecessor company, Radio San-in Broadcasting Co., Ltd. (RSB: Radio San-in Broadcasting Co., Ltd.), was founded by Ichiro Nosaka, who majored in radio before the war and was the head of the Sakai Coast Guard communications station after the war. In response to the amendments to the Broadcasting Law and Radio Law in April 1950, his younger brother Shinzo (father of the former Yonago Mayor Yasuo Saka), a radio engineer, made full-fledged plans to open a radio station, which had been under consideration until then. Yasuhisa Nosaka, the father of both of the brothers and a prominent local figure who served as a member of the Yonago City Council even before the war, agreed with their idea, and the three of them drew up an application for establishment, and the local business community With the cooperation of Yonago Shinkin Bank chairman Kisaburo Aoto (at the time), who was a good understanding of Yasuhisa, he supported Heibei Sakaguchi (2nd), Choemon Ta (23rd), and Yonehara.<ref name="yasuo">[https://web.archive.org/web/20141211061537/http://www.city.yonago.lg.jp/9452.htm 少年時代の思い出/米子市ホームページ] (Archived December 11, 2014)</ref> Shozo and others participated as promoters, and Hideyuki Miyoshi became the representative and submitted the application in December 1952.

As stated in Yasuo's reminiscences, the office building at the time of its opening was located on the second floor of the Oyasu Building in Yonago City. There was a [[pachinko parlor]] on the first floor. The entrance was also shared with a pachinko parlor, and employees and performers had to pass through the pachinko machines that were open. The studio reportedly struggled with soundproofing to prevent the noise from the pachinko machines. For this reason, at the time of its opening, it was nicknames '''Pachinko Broadcasting Station'''. In addition, the transmitting station was rented out at the facilities of [[Nippon Telegraph and Telephone|NTT]].<ref>Japan Commercial Broadcasting Federation "Ten Years of Commercial Broadcasting" 1961 pp.537–538</ref>
