KTKT was once an English-language station that broadcast games of the Tucson Sidewinders and Tucson Toros minor league baseball teams.

During the 1950s, KTKT was Tucson's only rock and roll radio station. In the 1960s, and the early 70s, KTKT played a Top 40 format and was by far the number one radio station in Tucson and southern Arizona. Today there is a KTKT Tribute site devoted to the original KTKT "color channel 99" [color TV was the rage in the early 1960s] . The KTKT Tribute site is located at http://www.ktkt99.com/ .
