KXTG (750 AM), "The Game" is an all-sports radio station in Portland, Oregon. Its transmitter is located in Damascus, while studios are in downtown Portland. It is owned by Alpha Media, a company owned by veteran radio executive Larry Wilson.
KXTG produces and airs two local sports talk shows on weekdays: "The Bald Faced Truth" (12pm-3pm), with columnist John Canzano of The Oregonian, and "The Irregular Guys" with Justin and Chop (3pm-7pm). The station also airs two nationally syndicated weekday shows: Dan Patrick (6am-9am) and Jim Rome (9am-noon). The rest of the schedule, apart from live sporting events, comes from the CBS Sports Radio Network.
KXTG is Portland's flagship home to the Oregon Ducks, March Madness, the Portland Timbers of Major League Soccer, and the Portland Steel of the Arena Football League.
KXTG first began broadcasting in 1926 as KXL. KXL was bought by Alpha Broadcasting in 2009, along with a sister station, KXTG, on the FM band. That station first signed on as 95.5 KXL-FM in June 1965 with a long-running beautiful music format followed by adult contemporary. On March 26, 1999, KXL-FM became KXJM, with a successful Rhythmic contemporary format that lasted until May 12, 2008, when it switched formats to sports. The KXJM call letters, Rhythmic format, and all other intellectual property were acquired by CBS Radio and moved to 107.5 FM.
