History

The station went on the air as country music formatted KDOL in the 1960s, then changed to a gold-based Adult Contemporary format in 1986 with the same call letters after being sold to Chambers Broadcasting, which owned KTPI. A year later, on 1987-07-15, the call letters where changed to KVOY and the Country format restored. On 1998-12-11, the station changed its call sign to KAVC and the Christian Talk format was moved to 1340 AM from 105.5 FM. On 2002-12-01, the station's call letters were changed to KTPI and the station flipped to an automated Classic Country format as 1340 KTPI AM as a counterpart to FM sister station 103.1 KTPI FM. In early 2003, the station changed names to Community Radio 1340 which included a morning show that discussed local politics and events, but retaining the automated Classic Country format the rest of the time. In mid-2004, after KWJL 1380 in Lancaster, California dropped the Adult Standards/MOR format in favor of Mexican Oldies, KTPI took the old name and format and became K-Jewel 1340 for a brief time. A few months later the station's name was changed to Magic 1340 while retaining the Adult Standards/MOR format.
