KFIL (1060 AM) is an American commercial radio station licensed to serve Preston, Minnesota. The station is licensed to broadcast only during daylight hours. Established in 1966 by O.B. Borgen, KFIL is currently owned by Townsquare Media and the broadcast license is held by Townsquare Media Rochester License, LLC.
KFIL broadcasts a country music format in conjunction with its sister station, KFIL-FM (103.1 FM). The station is a "daytimer", licensed to broadcast from local sunrise to local sunset, to avoid interfering with clear-channel stations KYW in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and XEEP in Mexico City. Under a "pre-sunrise authority" granted by the FCC in 2007, the station begins its broadcast day at 6:00am year-round. KFIL serves Fillmore County and the greater Rochester, Minnesota, area.
As a full service station, non-music programming includes CNN Radio, agriculture news, market reports, and specialized weather reports. KFIL is an affiliate of the Linder Farm Network. KFIL also broadcasts a tradio program called "Swap Shop" and a community calendar bulletin each weekday.
