Its HD-2 subchannel airs country music, also heard on translator station 96.9 K245CO in Millman, using the moniker "96.9 The Bull".
To better compete in the market, KJJY moved to 92.5 MHz on July 1, 1988, and received a power upgrade to 50,000 watts.
[8] The 106.3 frequency received the new call letters KYSY, rebranded as "Sunny 106", and was reprogrammed as an adult contemporary music station.
[11][12] Although it was the most successful format on the 106.3 frequency since KJJY, it largely cannibalized the audience of sister Mainstream CHR station KKDM rather than attracting new listeners away from competitors.
This arrangement was short-lived, and at noon on June 12, 2006, the KDRB calls and The Bus format moved completely to 100.3, replacing KMXD.
On June 12, 2006, the station re-launched as adult album alternative (AAA) Capital 106.3, and adopted the calls KPTL.
[15] By 2011, KPTL shifted its direction from AAA to modern adult contemporary, in an effort to compete with hot AC rival KSTZ.
On January 16, 2020, it was announced that sports talk sister station KXNO would add an FM simulcast on KDXA.
The station had dismissed its morning and afternoon hosts, as well as several other staff members, as part of national layoffs by iHeartMedia resulting from corporate restructuring.
