KXOL (1660 AM, "La Raza") was a commercial radio station licensed to serve Brigham City, Utah, USA. The station was owned by Inca Communications.
KXOL broadcast a Regional Mexican music format to the greater Ogden, Utah, area.[2] The station had previously aired a 1950s/1960s-based oldies music format from its original sign-on until it was acquired by Inca Communications in 2007.[3]
KXOL's signal had been reported in Northern and Southern California, in Flagstaff, Arizona, and as far away as Washington and Oregon.[4]
History
This station received its original construction permit from the Federal Communications Commission on February 6, 1998.[5] The new station was assigned the call letters KBDF by the FCC on March 23, 1998.[1] This callsign would prove short-lived as the station was assigned the KXOL call letters less than one month later on April 17, 1998.[1] KXOL received its license to cover from the FCC on April 27, 2001.[6]
In December 2002, First National Broadcasting Corporation, reached an agreement to sell this station to Simmons Media Group holding company Simmons-SLC, LS, LLC, as part of a two-station deal for a reported sale price of $925,000.[7] Simmons Media Group had been operating the stations since August 2002 under a local marketing agreement.[8][9] The deal was approved by the FCC on March 18, 2003, and the transaction was consummated on April 1, 2003.[10] At the time of the sale, the station played an oldies music format.[7]
In October 2006, Simmons Media Group, through its Simmons-SLC, LS, LLC, holding company, made a deal to sell KXOL to Inca Communications, Inc. (Nicolas Vicente, president) for reported sale price of $1 million.[11] The deal was approved by the FCC on November 30, 2006, and the transaction was consummated on April 30, 2007.[12] At the time of the sale, the station played an oldies music format.[11] Inca Communications operated KXOL under a local marketing agreement for a reported $5,000 per month until the sale was completed.[11]
On August 17, 2015, KXOL's license was deleted by the FCC due to the station having been silent for more than twelve months (since November 26, 2013).[13]
