KGLK (107.5 FM) and KHPT (106.9 FM, "Houston's Eagle") is a pair of simulcast classic rock formatted radio stations licensed to serve the communities of Lake Jackson, Texas, and Conroe, Texas, United States, respectively. Both facilities are owned by Cox Media Group, and are part of a four station cluster that includes KTHT and KKBQ, in the surveyed Houston metropolitan area. "The Eagle" is headquartered in Suite 2300 at 1990 Post Oak Blvd in the Uptown district in Houston, Texas, United States. KGLK's main transmitter facilities are located near Liverpool, TX with a backup transmitter site co-located at the KKBQ backup site. KHPT's main transmitter site is located in Splendora, Texas, and is shared with KSBJ.

Between the two frequencies, the Eagle covers more square miles than any station in southeast Texas.

Originally KGOL, the station began broadcasting to the Lake Jackson area at 107.3 FM as a Gospel station in the early 1980s.

The station moved north to include service to Houston and signed on at 107.5 FM on August 5, 1986, as classic rock-formatted KZFX "Z107". Z 107 competed primarily with KSRR and KLOL, having won the battle against KSRR who flipped to Top 40 (CHR), yet losing the rock war to KLOL, having been outlasted by it for another decade.

On October 31, 1994, at 11 a.m., the station flipped to alternative rock as KRQT, "Rocket 107.5". Under direction of new General Manager, Pat Fant (formerly of KLOL), the station re-launched the format in late May 1995 under the new callsign KTBZ and "107-5 The Buzz" moniker.
