KDYL (1060 kHz) is an AM radio station licensed to South Salt Lake, Utah broadcasting a Spanish Variety format. The station is owned by Eric Palacios, through licensee Radio Activo 3, LLC. The station broadcasts with 10,000 watts by day. But because AM 1060 is a clear channel frequency, after sunset KDYL must reduce power to 149 watts so it does not interfere with Class A stations XEEP, located near Mexico City, and KYW in Philadelphia. The transmitter is located off Bacchus Highway near Lark, Utah. History The station began broadcasting on September 2, 1967 as KRSP. Until the mid-1980s, the station aired a contemporary hits format, simulcast with its FM sister station KRSP-FM. By 1986, the station had begun airing separate programming from KRSP-FM, carrying an oldies format, playing music from the '50s and '60s. The station was branded "Utah's Oldies Station". Children's Radio era On September 24, 1990, the station changed its call sign to KKDS. It began broadcasting a children's radio format branded "The Imagination Station", with programming from the Orlando-based "Kids' Choice Broadcasting Network." KKDS was the first radio station aimed at children in the nation. The station later affiliated with the children's network Radio AAHS. Adult Standards era On November 12, 1997 the Radio AAHS affiliation ended, and the station began airing an adult contemporary and oldies format branded "All American Classics". By 2000, the station's format had changed to Adult Standards. In 2004, Holiday Broadcasting Co filed for the call sign KDYL, which had previously been held by AM 1280 while that station aired an Adult Standards format. On February 2, 2004, the station's call sign was changed to KDYL. In June 2005, KDYL began broadcasting the Jones Radio Networks' "Music of Your Life" Adult Standards format. Later, the station carried a syndicated Adult Standards format from Westwood One. Real Oldies 1060 On January 1, 2008, the station switched to an oldies format known as "Real Oldies" with live and local personalities, spotlighting hits from the mid-1950s through the mid-1960s. The change put the station in competition with another local oldies radio station 860 KKAT, which, at the time aired Scott Shannon's True Oldies Channel, although, unlike the True Oldies Channel, KDYL's playlist included only a small amount of post-1970 music. KKAT would eventually change formats, making KDYL the only pre-1970 oldies station in the Salt Lake metro area. Oldies leaves Salt Lake AM
