98.3 FM signed on in 1996 with the KYNU call letters as the original home for "Big Dog Country". In 2005, Big Dog Country moved to 95.5 FM as the oldies format was swapped to 98.3 as "Oldies 98.3". In 2008, KXGT flipped to adult contemporary as "Sunny 98.3". On August 9, 2012, the station flipped to classic hits as "Ted FM". In February 2018 KXGT changed their format from classic hits to a simulcast of classic country formatted KQLX-FM 106.1 FM Lisbon.[3]
