History

The station was issued a construction permit on April 29, 1969, and became fully licensed as KJFF on December 1, 1969.[1] It first aired a beautiful music format. On October 28, 1981 under new ownership of Brill Media, it changed its call sign to KTXY and became an adult contemporary format.[2]

In 1982, it would switch the format to Top 40/CHR as "Music 107", marking it one of two dominant CHR stations in the mid-Missouri area at the period, with the other being KCMQ. Its current name "Y107" was introduced in 1988. On October 5, 1992, its call letters were changed to KKFA, with a soft rock format called "The Cafe" for a short period before returning to the KTXY call letters. On October 11, 1993, the station returned to a Top 40 format as Y-107. After competitor KCMQ dropped its CHR format in 1994, KTXY became the only dominant CHR station for the mid-Missouri region.[3] Since 2001, its main competitor is similarly formatted KOQL.
