History

The station went on the air as KEEP on 1988-06-08. KEEP was to be the FM counterpart of KCUL 1410. The station license was applied for in 1985. KEEP signed on the air in 1988, and was owned by East Texas Stereo Inc. (Tommy Moore of Shreveport).

On 11/1/1992, the station changed its call sign to the current KCUL-FM. KCUL-FM was a full service oldies station that served the ciry of Marshall, Texas. KCUL-FM had completely live on-air talent 24/7. One of the featured programs was the morning swap shop.

In 2000, long time owner of KCUL AM/FM, East Texas Stereo Inc. sold the combo to Access.1 of New York. The sale coincided with the sale of Cary Kamp's Shreveport, Louisiana cluster to Access.1.

In 2005 KCUL-FM changed format to a Regional Mexican format, and became a simulcast of KOYE in Frankston, Texas.

In 2013 the FCC forced Access.1 to sell two of its FM stations, it was decided that KCUL-FM and KSYR (Shreveport) would be those stations and was released to Cosecha Communications LLC, As Trustee (a trust), to be sold at a later date.

On September 2, 2015, Access.1 once again regained ownership of KCUL-FM and KSYR, after the sale of their larger stations to Alpha Media.

November 30, 2015, Access.1 ceased to exist. Access.1's remaining stations KCUL-FM, KFRO, and KSYR, were folded into A.1 Investco LLC, controlled by Todd Boehly the CEO of Gugenheim Capital.
