KPHT (95.5FM, "95.5 KPHT") is aradio station broadcasting aclassic hitsformat. Licensed toRocky Ford, Colorado, it serves thePueblo, Colorado area. The signal can be heard in most parts ofColorado Springs. The station is currently owned byiHeartMedia, Inc.
KPHT was originallyKAVI-FM and was assigned toRocky Ford as a class A operating on 95.9, but was granted a C1 upgrade by moving frequency to 95.5 in 1989.
In 2004 the station was changed to "Hot 95-5" as arhythmic adult contemporary format similar toKPLV in Las Vegas. During this time, KPHT aired theWake Up With Whoopi morning show hosted byWhoopi Goldberg.[2]
In 2009 KPHT flipped to its current format ofclassic hits when the format was dropped at sister station 107.9 FM.
KPHT's tower is located 60 miles south of Colorado Springs and even being a C1 with ERP of 100 kW the signal is spotty in most of the Springs.KPTT 95.7 FM in Denver also hampers the signal; this is the reason why the tower is more south of Colorado Springs and only covers most of Pueblo.
