For the Salt Lake City-area radio station previously known by this call sign, see [KNRS-FM](/source/KNRS-FM).

**KTMY** (107.1 [FM](/source/FM_broadcasting)) is an entertainment-oriented [talk](/source/Talk_radio) radio station, serving the [Twin Cities](/source/Minneapolis-St._Paul) as well as portions of West Central [Wisconsin](/source/Wisconsin).[1][2] The station is owned and operated by [Hubbard Broadcasting](/source/Hubbard_Broadcasting). KTMY's studios and offices are located on University Avenue along the boundary line between [St. Paul](/source/Saint_Paul,_Minnesota) and [Minneapolis](/source/Minneapolis), and its [transmitter](/source/Transmitter) is located at [Telefarm Towers](/source/Telefarm_Towers) in [Shoreview, Minnesota](/source/Shoreview,_Minnesota), off County Road F West.[3][4][5]

## Station history

The station was originally licensed to serve [New Richmond, Wisconsin](/source/New_Richmond,_Wisconsin), as WIXK-FM, [simulcasting](/source/Simulcast) the [country music](/source/Country_music) format of that city's [WIXK](/source/WIXK). 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 from [New Richmond](/source/New_Richmond,_Wisconsin) to [Coon Rapids, Minnesota](/source/Coon_Rapids,_Minnesota), and its transmitter moved to the [Telefarm](/source/Telefarm) installation in [Shoreview](/source/Shoreview,_Minnesota).

On June 3, 2002, WIXK-FM adopted the WFMP [call sign](/source/Call_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 featuring [Dr. Laura Schlessinger](/source/Laura_Schlessinger), [Dr. Joy Browne](/source/Dr._Joy_Browne), and [Clark Howard](/source/Clark_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 inmate [Philip Workman](/source/Philip_Workman) to have vegetarian pizza delivered to homeless residents of [Nashville, Tennessee](/source/Nashville,_Tennessee).[12]

## HD Radio

KTMY has been broadcasting an [HD radio](/source/HD_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)](/source/KSTP_(AM)). That simulcast moved to a sub-channel of [KSTP-FM](/source/KSTP-FM) in December 2013. The HD-2 is now simulcasting the [oldies](/source/Oldies) format of Borgen Broadcasting-owned, [WDGY](/source/WDGY).[13][14]

As of August 15, 2025, [Brainerd](/source/Brainerd,_Minnesota) sister station [KLIZ-FM](/source/KLIZ-FM), which features a [classic rock](/source/Classic_rock) format, can now be heard in the [Twin Cities metropolitan area](/source/Twin_Cities_metropolitan_area) via KTMY's HD3 subchannel.
