KMGL (104.1 FM, "Magic 104.1") is an adult contemporary music formatted radio station serving the Oklahoma City area and is owned by Ty and Tony Tyler, through licensee Tyler Media, L.L.C. The station's studios are located in Northeast Oklahoma City and a transmitter site is located a mile east from the studio.
The station began broadcasting in 1965 in Oklahoma City and was known by the call letters KOFM. It signed on the air as a beautiful music station and the home for the Indian Nations News Network (INN). During the early 1970s, KOFM adopted a hybrid format as programmed by current FOX Talk Radio VP of programming Mike Elder. The format provided a unique sound that included beautiful music mixed with rock album cuts by groups such as the Moody Blues and was called "Fresh Air". Later, KOFM was a top rated top 40 hit station programmed by Mike Miller, John Jenkins and Charlie Cooper and used the positioning statement "Rockin' With The Hits". On June 2, 1986, KOFM became KMGL and changed formats to Transtar's Format 41. Over time KMGL became a fully live adult contemporary formatted station under the direction of PD Charlie Cooper and current morning personality Steve O'Brien. KMGL has been one of Oklahoma City's top rated stations since the mid 1980s.
Today, the KOFM call letters are now used by a station in Enid, Oklahoma.
On July 15, 2012, Ty and Tony Tyler's Tyler Media entered into an agreement with Renda Broadcasting to purchase that company's Oklahoma City radio cluster (KMGL, KOMA, KRXO and KOKC) for $40 million. In accordance to limits imposed by the Federal Communications Commission on the number of radio stations a single broadcasting entity can own in a single market, Tyler sold KTLR and KKNG to WPA Radio for $1.6 million. Tyler's purchase of KMGL and its sister stations was consummated on November 13, 2012.
