KLTA "FM 105.1" is a radio station based in Fargo, North Dakota, though licensed by the FCC to Breckenridge, Minnesota. It is owned by Go Radio Broadcasing, a division of Triad Broadcasting. The station runs a Hot AC format which plays current and past popular pop, and light rock songs. Its nearest competitor is James Ingstad's adult contemporary KMXW "Mix 104.7", which is down from 105.1 on the dial.
Triad Broadcasting also owns KQWB-AM 1660 (Talk), KQWB-FM 98.7 (Active rock), KVOX 99.9 (Country), KEGK 106.9 (Oldies), and KPFX 107.9 (Classic Rock) in the Fargo-Moorhead area.
[edit] History
The station first broadcasted as KLTA in 1984 with an adult contemporary (AC) format as "Lite Rock 105". KLTA tweaked to a Hot AC format in 2002 with the "FM 105.1" moniker. In March 2006, a Radio Data System (RDS) was installed to the transmitter which brought title and artist information along with the broadcast to cars that accepted the RDS signal. KLTA's website later offered an online stream in April 2006.
The longtime Chris, John, and Jane morning show were hired by James Ingstad in February 2007 for upstart country station, KBVB 95.1 "Bob 95 FM".
