History[]
On February 26, 1971, KDLS-FM first signed on.[3] It was originally on 104.9 MHz. It was owned by the Perry Broadcasting Company, which also owns former sister station AM 1310 KDLS. Even though both stations continue to use the KDLS call sign, they are now separately owned.
In the 1990s, the station moved to 105.5 MHz. The station broadcast a country music format with frequent farm reports.[4]
In the 2010s, the station was sold to owners specializing in Latin music formats. It switched to Regional Mexican music.
