KMGI (102.5 FM) is a commercial radio station located in Pocatello, Idaho. KMGI was the first classic rock station in Eastern Idaho.
As of August 20, 2012 KMGI changed its format from traditional classic rock to a mix of newer classic rock artists. KMGI dropped the "older" classic rock such as the Beatles and CCR and replaced it with "newer" 1990's based music like grunge, alternative, and some industrial. With this change came a new logo and slogan- "World Class Rock"
Their daily line up of DJs includes the morning show team of Idaho radio veterans Don Craig and Sean Green. Mark Bone hosts the afternoon drive. KMGI runs the syndicated program Nights with Alice Cooper from 7p-Midnight M-F.
KMGI is again using the "Magic" branding, but with the novelty spelling Magik as presented in logo here.
KMGI broadcasts with 100 kW, and is a class C FM station.[1]
The station was sold in November 2014 by Pacific Empire Communications to Idaho Wireless Corporation[2] and studios relocated.
