"Also part of the Univision Cluster: TV Stations KUVN and KSTR"|KESS-FM (107.9 FM), branded as "La Que Buena", is a
Spanish language radio station serving the Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex inTexas . The station is licensed inLewisville, Texas , and owned and operated byUnivision Radio .The KESS call letters were first used in D/FW in the spring of 1976 when
Marcos Rodriguez, Sr. gained control of a country station, KBUY-FM, on 93.9 FM. That station changed to 94.1 when it moved it's transmitter to Cedar Hill, TX in order to avoid a spacing problem with another Dallas station.The current version of 107.9 was made possible when
Marcos Rodriguez successfully obtained a new class C2 licensed toGainesville, Texas , and purchased 107.9, a Class C licensed toCorsicana, Texas . After Rodriguez sold to Heftel Broadcasting and Mac Tichenor gained control of HBC, Tichenor moved the Corsicana signal south to the Waco market (as the new class A6 in Robinson, TX called KHCK-FM) and allowed the Gainesville signal to upgrade and move intoDallas as a class C1 in Lewisville, TX. The call letters changed a few times through KDXX and KESS-FM.External links
