KQOB (96.9 FM, "Santa 96.9") is a Christmas music radio station serving the Oklahoma City area and is owned by Champlin Broadcasting. The station is currently in a LMA with Cumulus Media. Its studios are in Northwest Oklahoma City, and the transmitter is in unincorporated Kingfisher County. ==History== The station was on the air as early as 1967 as KCRC-FM with a beautiful music format. It then became known as KNID and had a mostly country format until November 2000. On July 12, 2000 the station changed calls to KMKZ. On November 24, 2000, its call sign became KMMZ, moved to a tower closer to Oklahoma City, changed its slogan to "Memories 96.9", and began using the ABC Network’s “Memories” network for its programming. KMMZ began stunting on November 13, 2002, and adopted the slogan “The Bull's Oklahoma Christmas” playing Christmas music by country artists. On December 26, 2002, the station adopted “The Bull” slogan and Red Dirt Country format from then KQBL 104.9 FM. The station began using the KQBL call sign on September 1, 2003. The station began stunting again at 9 AM on November 3, 2003 with a brief all-comedy format. At 10:45 that morning, the station became "96.9 BOB FM" with an adult hits format. The station switched calls to KQOB on December 8, 2003. On June 10, 2015, KQOB dropped the "Bob FM" branding and rebranded as "Classic Rock 96.9".〔(KQOB Drops Bob Name )〕 On November 23, 2015, at 7 PM, after playing "That's All" by Genesis, KQOB began stunting with Christmas music as "Santa 96.9" (the first song on "Santa" was "Christmas All Over Again" by Tom Petty). In addition to the change, Jack and Ron, formerly of KYIS, will be KQOB's new morning hosts beginning December 3, and a new format will launch at 6AM on December 28th.〔https://radioinsight.com/blog/headlines/95332/classic-rock-96-9-oklahoma-city-bids-farewell/〕 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「KQOB」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
