KTMY (107.1FM) is an entertainment-orientedtalk radio station, serving theTwin Cities as well as portions of West CentralWisconsin.[1][2] The station is owned and operated byHubbard Broadcasting. KTMY's studios and offices are located on University Avenue along the boundary line betweenSt. Paul andMinneapolis, and itstransmitter is located atTelefarm Towers inShoreview, Minnesota, off County Road F West.[3][4][5]
The station was originally licensed to serveNew Richmond, Wisconsin, as WIXK-FM,simulcasting thecountry music format of that city'sWIXK. Hubbard Broadcasting bought both stations in 2000 for $27 million, and moved WIXK-FM to the immediate Twin Cities area, where the station's city of license was changed fromNew Richmond toCoon Rapids, Minnesota, and its transmitter moved to theTelefarm installation inShoreview.
On June 3, 2002, WIXK-FM adopted the WFMPcall sign and dropped country in favor of a talk format, originally branded as "FM 107" ("real. life. conversation."), that emphasized issues, topics, and conversations that catered to a female audience.[6][7] The original "FM 107" schedule included national call-in/advice shows featuringDr. Laura Schlessinger,Dr. Joy Browne, andClark Howard, but locally produced programming would make up a majority of the schedule in later years.
The "myTalk 107.1" branding officially went into effect February 2010.[8][9]
The original myTalk lineup Included Ian and Margery (morning drive), Colleen and The Boys (mid-morning), Jason and Alexis (afternoons), Lori and Julia (afternoon drive), and Brian and Shelletta (evenings from 7:00–9:00 pm). The Brian and Shelletta show was cancelled in July 2010.[10] The 7:00–9:00 P.M. slot was replaced by a rebroadcast of a Jason and Alexis show. Colleen and The Boys (hosted by Colleen Kruse, Chris Reuvers, and G.R. Anderson) was cancelled March 2012,[11] and the time slot was replaced by the Colleen and Bradley show (hosted by Colleen Lindstrom and Bradley Traynor).
In 2007, the station answered a call from condemned inmatePhilip Workman to have vegetarian pizza delivered to homeless residents ofNashville, Tennessee.[12]
KTMY has been broadcasting anHD radio signal since October 2011. The station's HD-2 sub-channel aired a simulcast of the sports format from its sister station,KSTP (AM). That simulcast moved to a sub-channel ofKSTP-FM in December 2013. The HD-2 is now simulcasting theoldies format of Borgen Broadcasting-owned,WDGY.[13][14]
As of August 15, 2025,Brainerd sister stationKLIZ-FM, which features aclassic rock format, can now be heard in theTwin Cities metropolitan area via KTMY's HD3 subchannel.
