On January 7, 2019, the station dropped itsKolt Country format, and beganstunting with aspeaking clock counting down to 6:00 a.m. on January 14, 2019 (at which time the station was expected to introduce a new format or other significant change in operations). The nature of the stunt caused concern among residents, to the point that the Flagstaff Police Department had to release a statement asking residents to stop phoning about the broadcasts, as the countdown was a promotional event with no harm intended.[6][7] At the conclusion of the stunt, the station returned to a country format asThe New Kolt @ 107.5, pivoting its playlist to a hot country format with a focus on newer music.[8]
