KKGM is an AM Talk radio station that serves the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, and is owned by Mortenson Broadcasting.
In addition to talk show programming, KKGM is also the Dallas radio broadcast affiliate of Oklahoma Sooners football games[1] as well as Oklahoma Sooners men's basketball games[2].
The station started out in 1994 as KOEM, a simulcast of KHVN-970 kHz. It was intended to be the dial expansion position for KHVN, to become the new permanent home for that station in 2004, but Infinity/CBS Radio sold the frequency in 1998. Since Mortenson now owns both 970 and 1630, this move could feasibly still happen. The year the station was sold, it has switched its format to Spanish language music as KBCM. Three years later, the station changed its callsign to KNAX under a religious format in Spanish. The station had applied for license city move to Euless and for call letters "KHEV," but went with "KKGM" instead in 2004.
