To avoid interference, KXTG reduces power at night to 20,000 watts using a directional antenna with a four-tower array.

John Canzano hosts The Bald Faced Truth weekday afternoons on KXTG.

With the enactment of the North American Regional Broadcasting Agreement (NARBA) in 1941, KXL moved to 750 AM and got a boost in power to 10,000 watts.

But it was a daytimer, required to go off the air at night to protect Class I-A station WSB Atlanta from interference.

[8] By day, KXL played an easy listening format it called "Good Music."

Artists included Frank Sinatra, Peggy Lee, Perry Como, Nat King Cole and Henry Mancini.

The KXJM call letters, hip-hop format and all other intellectual property were acquired by CBS Radio and moved to 107.5 FM.

With Portland 2,100 miles (3,380 km) from Atlanta, KXL was allowed to broadcast around the clock, using a directional antenna powered at 20,000 watts at night.

At 8:47 a.m. on March 15, 2011, KXL started simulcasting on 101.1 FM, replacing the active rock format of KUFO.

In August 2019, KXTG dropped its simulcast on the 102.9 FM translator frequency, due to a format change to hip hop music.

Rose City Radio, a company controlled by Portland Trail Blazers owner Paul Allen, bought it and KXTG from Smith in 1998 for a reported $42 million.
