History

KMEO

Originally, 96.9 FM was KMEO (Cameo) broadcasting easy listening music programming. In the late 1980s, the format evolved into an adult contemporary music format. In 1991, it became oldies-formatted Sunny 97 (KPSN), which would spark a whirlwind of format and callsign changes: in 1994, it became classic hits KCHT (later KHTC) (K-Hits), then changed brands but not formats to KGLQ (96.9 The Eagle). In 1998, it adopted its current format, hot adult contemporary as KMXP. The station was re-branded to its current branding known as “Mix 96.9”.
