[edit] History

KGVL Signed on in 1946 on 1400 khz in Greenville Texas with possibly a Country Format. Until 1987 KGVL Broadcast an Adult Standards Format. In 1987 the format was flipped to Adult Contemporary, which would give way to a News/Talk Format that started at an unknown date until 1994 when the format was changed to Country.
KGVL would soon drop the Country format in 1999 to go Oldies as 14K. Gold.
The Format was eventually changed again to make way for a News/Talk/Sports Format that lasted until 2009 when KGVL flipped yet again to Classic Country.

On Wednesday October 6th, 2010, KGVL went back to an Oldies format as Big 14 GVL.
