KLTA (105.1 FM, "FM 105.1") is a radio station based in Fargo, North Dakota, though licensed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to Breckenridge, Minnesota. It is owned by Go Radio Broadcasting, a division of Triad Broadcasting. The station runs a Hot AC format which plays current and past popular pop and Top Forty songs.

The station signed on as KKIB in 1983 as the flagship station of contemporary hit radio (Top 40) formatted Superstation Double K FM network, which was also broadcast on KKWS 105.9 FM in Wadena, Minnesota and KKVC in Valley City, North Dakota. It then became KLTA in 1984 with an Adult Contemporary format as "Lite Rock 105". KLTA tweaked to a Hot AC format in 2004 with the "FM 105.1" moniker.
In 1989, KLTA started the Christmas Wish Program. The station asks for donations throughout the year to their Christmas Wish Charity (mainly at their "Wishburger" event in June and the Wish-a-thon in December), and then gives out $500 gifts to families in need throughout the month of December.
Triad Broadcasting also owns KQWB 1660 (Sports), KQWB-FM 98.7 (Active rock), KVOX 99.9 (Country), and KPFX 107.9 (Classic rock) in the Fargo-Moorhead area.
In May 1999, Triad Broadcasting reached a deal to acquire this station from Brothers Jim and Tom Instad as part of a twelve-station deal valued at a reported $37.8 million.[1]
