KMHT (1450 AM) and KMHT-FM (103.9 FM) are radio stations broadcasting a sports format on AM and a classic country on FM. Licensed to Marshall in Harrison County, Texas, USA, the stations serve the Longview-Marshall area. The stations are currently owned by Hanszen Broadcast Group, Inc.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=KMHT Facility Record )〕 The station also broadcasts Marshall High School athletics as well as ETBU athletics, TSN (Texas State Network), Texas Rangers, Houston Astros, Dallas Cowboys, Houston Texans, Dallas Mavericks, the University of Texas Longhorn Athletics, and Texas A&M athletics.〔http://www.kmhtradio.com KMHT's Website〕 Other area high school athletics that KMHT covers include Harleton, Karnack, and Waskom. ==History== A group of local veterans returned to Marshall from World War II and took advantage of their right to first preferences of frequencies after the radio frequency freeze was lifted at the end of the war. In 1961, after 14 years of operation, KMHT AM was granted FCC permission to raise the daytime power from 250 watts to 1000 watts. Shortly thereafter, the FCC approved the operation of 1000 Watts around the clock. A later move to a new transmitter site required lowering the power to 650 watts. In the late 1990s, KMHT was given to Wiley College, a historically black four-year liberal arts institution affiliated with the United Methodist Church, by then owner professional boxer George Foreman. Wiley College later sold the stations to Jerry Russell, a former member of the Tyler City Council. Russell wanted to use KMHT-FM as a repeater for his AM 690 KZEY (which has since gone silent), so KMHT-FM became KZEY-FM. In August 2003, Hanszen Broadcast Group, Inc., purchased KMHT/KZEY and changed the FM back to KMHT-FM. In the fall of 2006, KMHT 1450 AM changed format to ESPN Radio. The format includes local sports coverage as well as the network coverage. The KMHT-FM format stayed the same. KMHT carries ''The Bob Griffin Radio Show'', broadcast from KEEL (AM) in Shreveport, Louisiana, a program of travel reports, features, area personalities, and uplifting human interest stories, often with Christian testimonies.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Who is Bob Griffin? )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「KMHT (AM)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
