History
The station has had several call letters during its existence. The station started as a construction permit in 1988, not receiving its license to cover until 1994 as KYKN. KMGR itself switched frequencies from 103.9 to 99.1, as part of a complex swap of frequencies happening in Salt Lake City in 2016 and 2017. [3]
The station has a construction permit to increase ERP to 100,000 watts, changing class type to C1; its present license is Class A. This would provide the station with coverage into Provo, Utah and parts of the southern Salt Lake valley.[4]
