History
KSTY went on the air on June 1, 1975[1] as KRLN-FM, changing to KSTX within a year of signing on. It was the FM sister to KRLN, and initially simulcast the AM station. KRLN-FM broadcast with 3,000 watts from a transmitter site in Canon City. On May 31, 1982, KSTX reverted to the KRLN-FM call letters. It became KSTY on December 30, 1994, with its current country format. On December 8, 2005, KSTY and KKCS 101.9 FM switched frequencies. The swap was undone in 2007, when the KSTY call letters and "Star Country" moniker returned to the 104.5 frequency.
