KMUS


KMUS is a Spanish-language radio station which serves the Tulsa, Oklahoma market. KMUS broadcasts on 1380 kHz under ownership of Radio Las Américas LLC. Although the station can heard through much of the Tulsa area during the daytime hours, its nighttime signal is limited to just 250 watts, offering much weaker reception.

History

KMUS began broadcasting in Muskogee, Oklahoma in 1948. It changed to KLUE on July 25, 1987 with a format of crossover country. Three years later, the call sign reverted to KMUS and the station aired an adult standards format before Reunion Broadcasting, LLC sold it to The Walt Disney Company in 2004. Its transmitter site and city of license was relocated to Sperry, Oklahoma, and the format changed to the company's Radio Disney offering.
Disney took KMUS, and five other stations slated to be sold, off the air on January 22, 2010. After the first attempt to sell the station fell through, a deal to sell KMUS to Radio Las Americas LLC was announced in February 2011. Radio Las Américas returned the station to the air on April 29 with a Spanish-language popular music format, along with two newscasts a day.
