KMTL was built and signed on in 1984 by the Sherwood Broadcasting Company, owned by the Shields family. In 1988, George V. Domerese bought KMTL. Under Domerese's ownership, the station broadcast a gospel format. George V. Domerese died in 2017, leaving ownership of the station to his estate.
Heavy rainfall in 2018 knocked KMTL off the air as of March 1, and instead of returning it to air, the Domerese estate opted to sell. In August, the estate filed to sell KMTL to Radio La Patrona for $100,000. With the sale still pending, in order to retain its license, the station resumed operations under special temporary authority in late February 2019 with 1,000 watts.[4][5]
Effective June 2, 2022, KMTL and its translator K250CF were sold to Jose Carlos Moron's Radio La Raza for $70,000.[6]
