[edit] History
Its legacy on FM radio dates back to 1961 when it signed on as KOL-FM. The frequency has seen both Progressive Rock (1968-1975) and Beautiful music (1975-1978 as KEUT) formats, before flipping to its current incarnation in April 1978.
KMPS started its life as a country station in 1975, as KMPS AM 1300. It was a direct challenger to then-dominant country station KAYO 1150 AM. Today, it is one of three Country outlets targeting the Puget Sound region; KKWF and KNBQ are the other two.
KMPS FM 94.1 is currently ranked #1 of 36 Seattle radio stations in Arbitron Ratings Data for Fall of '06.
