The Penmont Broadcasting Corporation acquired KWYT-FM in 1977. Community Pacific Broadcasting Corporation acquired it and Salinas AM station KTOM, plus an AM-FM combo inModesto, in 1982.[6] The new owners switched the FM station frombeautiful music back to country on March 1, 1984, and changed the call sign to KTOM-FM to match the AM outlet.[7]
