History
KDSQ/KSHN/Kick'm Country In April 1967, the station signed on as KDSQ. It was based in the Sherman-Denison area on 101.7 MHz. Two years later, it changed its call sign to KSHN. In 1975 it changed to KIKM-FM with a country music format during the day and Top 40 at night (simulcast from sister station KIKM), then to full-time Top 40 a couple years later. In 1983, the call sign changed to KZXL-FM, but two years later the previous call sign was re-established This was the start of 20,000 songs in a row without commercial interruption. Initially jockless, The Twister started adding DJs in September 2003. From there, it broadcast a diverse oldies format, as the playlist was taken directly from the remnants of the former ABC Radio's corporate "Memories" music library; thus, their slogan was "Forgotten Hits Re-Discovered". It also marked a return of a few former "Memories" personalities with Ron Chapman as the station's consultant. KTCK/The Ticket simulcast On October 7, 2013, Cumulus announced that effective October 21, 96.7 would change from a simulcast of WBAP to sports AM station KTCK. Dan Bennet, Dallas/Fort Worth market manager for Cumulus, said that WBAP had "no ratings increase since adding the FM". The WBAP simulcast moved to KPLX 99.5 HD2. A callsign change to KTCK-FM took effect October 27. ==Signal==
Signal
Unlike most of the area's FM stations like sister stations KSCS, KPLX and WBAP-FM, which transmit their signals from Cedar Hill and Southwest Dallas, KTCK-FM transmits its signal from an unincorporated area within the county borders of Cooke, Montague, and Wise. Therefore, KTCK-FM's signal is much stronger in the Northwestern parts of the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex as well as the cities of Decatur, Bowie, Gainesville, and Sherman, to as far north as Ardmore, Oklahoma, but is considerably weaker in Dallas and areas southeast of the Metroplex. ==References==
