KRMD (1340

radio station licensed to Shreveport, Louisiana and serving the Ark-La-Tex region. The station is owned by Cumulus Media and based at the Louisiana Boardwalk in Bossier City, Louisiana. The station's transmitter is just southwest of the I-20/I-49 interchange in Shreveport, coincidentally across the street from a separate transmitter housing its sister stations, its FM partner, KMJJ-FM, KVMA-FM and KQHN
.

Programming

The station plays Christmas music every November and December. In 2022, it was the first station to change to Christmas music for the season, after it unceremoniously flipped to Christmas music on October 28 and other stations who traditionally flipped earlier declined to do so in 2022.[3]

History

KRMD was originally licensed and put on the air by R. M. Dean; the call sign was derived from his initials. The original license was issued in May 1928 with original power of 50 and 100 watts.

B-17 bombers.[5]

Until 2005, KRMD was "1340 The Zone" and was the only

Bill O'Reilly and sports talk with Tim Brando. As of the 2006 NFL season, KRMD is the local affiliate for the Dallas Cowboys
.

On December 17, 2012, KRMD returned to a sports format, branded as "Sports Talk 100.7". using the frequency of its FM translator (K264AS) in its branding. The change was part of Cumulus' rollout of the

CBS Sports Radio network on its sports stations.[6]
In 2016, KRMD rebranded as "100.7 FM & 1340 AM The Ticket".

On March 9, 2020, Cumulus Media flipped KRMD and K264AS from sports to

soft AC, as "Lite Rock 100.7", Shreveport-Bossier's New At Work Radio Station.[7]
