History

KTAM started its Hispanic programming after competitor KBMA "La Fabulosa" was sold to Clear Channel Communications in 2001, changed format to Classic Rock, and became KNFX-FM. Some of the former KBMA staff were hired by KTAM.

Prior to the format change, KTAM broadcast an oldies music format.
