KOYE (96.7
History
The facility was first licensed by the FCC on August 13, 1970 @ 94.3
By the late 1990s, KLIS was broadcasting on 96.7
In October 2003, KOYE added a simulcast on KFRO-FM 95.3 to improve coverage of the Longview area. With the addition of the simulcast, KOYE and KFRO-FM reimaged as "La Super Invasora." This was the first of four different stations that simulcasted KOYE to cover the Longview area. The KFRO-FM simulcast lasted until April 2004 when Waller Media began operating KXAL 100.3 by an LMA. The simulcast was transferred to KXAL while KFRO-FM returned to oldies. On January 7, 2005, Waller Media sold KOYE to Access 1 Communications. Due to the change in ownership, the KXAL simulcast was dropped and replaced by a simulcast on the new sister station KCUL 92.3, licensed to Marshall. Eventually KOYE became known as "La Invasora." The station name "La Invasora" translates in English to "The Invasive." [1]".
Access 1 launched the same "La Invasora" format on 92.1 KSYR in Shreveport. Since Marshall is part of the Shreveport radio market, Access 1 decided to switch KCUL to a simulcast of KSYR. KOYE would go without a simulcast until February 19, 2020 when KTLH 107.9 signed on.
