KMMX-FM (100.3 FM), known as "Mix 100", is a Hot Adult Contemporary formatted radio station licensed to Tahoka, Texas, and serving the greater Lubbock, Texas, area.

History

KMMX-FM originally signed on as "Mix 104.7" as a Soft AC. However, the station suffered from weak signal penetration into the Lubbock market. In the 1990s, a frequency swap with another market allowed KMMX to occupy the 100.3 frequency. By May 1997, the station took on a more CHR friendly Hot AC format with live air personalities, using the slogan "A 50/50 Mix Of The 80s & 90s." This was a response to the loss of KRLB 99.5 "The Music Station," which, as a result of the sale of Mainstream CHR Z102 to KRLB's parent company, changed formats from Hot Adult Contemporary to Classic Rock.

In 1998, KMMX-FM began dropped the ".3" from their name, simply identifying themselves as Mix 100, "Your Music Fix". In 1999, the station again changed slogans to "The Best Mix Of The 80s, 90s, & Today".

Briefly in 2003, the station used the slogan "Lubbock's Number 1 Hit music station." Since then however, they have used the slogan, "Lubbock's Pop-Rock", identifying the music the station plays as a blend of pop and rock music.

Programming

Mix 100 became the first radio station in Lubbock to carry the syndicated morning show "Kidd Kraddick in the Morning" in June of 2001.
