KDYL (1060 kHz) is an AM radio station airing the programming of China International Radio in English and Mandarin Chinese.Licensed to South Salt Lake, Utah, it serves the Salt Lake City metropolitan area. The station is owned by James Su, through licensee Mountain View Broadcast, LLC.
The station broadcasts at 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.
The station was first signed on the air on September 2, 1967, and held the call sign 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".
