KPNT (105.7 FM, "105-7 The Point") is a commercial radio station licensed to Collinsville, Illinois, and broadcasting to Greater St. Louis.

[1] The transmitter is off Mackenzie Road in Shrewsbury, just outside the St. Louis city limits, on a tower used by numerous local TV and FM stations.

KSGM-FM broadcast at 27,000 watts from a 285-foot antenna, with only limited coverage of the southern part of the St. Louis radio market.

On March 6, 1991, KSTZ was rebranded as "The Fox" with an album oriented rock (AOR) format and new set of call letters, KFXB.

Emmis changed the format of WXTM and shifted many of its staff to KPNT including The Howard Stern Show, program director Tommy Mattern, and afternoon DJ Jeff "Woody" Fife.

[8] Following Howard Stern's departure from terrestrial radio at the end of 2005, the station began airing the syndicated Rover's Morning Glory.

The station was required to reduce its effective radiated power from 100,000 watts to 54,000 watts and height above average terrain from more than 1,300 feet to 835 feet, but the trade was considered beneficial to KPNT by moving its transmitter within the immediate St. Louis metropolitan area, now using a TV and FM tower off Mackenzie Road.

KPNT produced a series of compilation albums, featuring tracks submitted by local up and coming artists from throughout the St. Louis metropolitan area.

Bands featured in the Pointessential series before they became well known have included Gravity Kills, The Urge, Stir, Modern Day Zero, Cavo, Die Symphony, and Autovein.

It was brought back again in 2002 after a three-year break when the station renewed its commitment to the local music scene in St.
