stations, on Iowa Avenue in Riverside.

The transmitter is off Via Labanca in a rural part of Temecula.[1]

History

This station

Clear Channel Communications, based in San Antonio. KTMK began simulcasting San Diego sister station KOGO shortly after it went on the air. Clear Channel wanted a more reliable signal for KOGO in southern Riverside County, which has become a significant suburb of San Diego (and also of Los Angeles, for that matter). The call sign
became KOGO-FM in 2001.

hot adult contemporary station KMYI. The Temecula station became KMYT.[2] The format lasted for two years until the simulcast was broken and the station flipped to smooth jazz, which would last 10 years. At this point, it became a local station for the Temecula area, alongside co-owned KTMQ
.

While smooth jazz was a popular format in

Adult Album Alternative (AAA) format, branded as "Radio 94.5", on August 29, 2014.[3]

First logo as Radio 94.5, used from 2014 to 2019

Clear Channel spun off their radio stations into iHeartMedia in September 2014.

Following

Contemporary Christian Music
in September 2015, KMYT became the only commercially operating AAA station in Southern California, if not the entire state.

In February 2019, the station unveiled a new logo, still keeping the "Radio" brand, to be followed nearly one year later by a shift to a CHR-leaning alternative format, leaving non-commercial KCSN as the only AAA-formatted station in Southern California.[4] The format shift occurred on January 29, 2020, at midnight, with the first song being "Thunder" by Imagine Dragons. This station is not a live station as all the voices are pre-recorded days in advance and not local in the community.

Sports programming

As of 2019, KMYT is now the radio home of the

Entercom's country station KXFG. Storm games are the only brokered programming
carried by KMYT.
