Ownership

In June 2006, KRKX was acquired by Cherry Creek Radio from Fisher Radio Regional Group as part of a 24 station deal with a total reported sale price of $33.3 million. Recently KRKX switched its local morning show to a nationally satellite delivered show titled " Tony and Kris in the morning" replacing D.J. Captain Mike's morning show.[1]

On January 1, 2010, KRKX changed their format to country, branded as "K-Sky".

On May 7, 2019, Connoisseur Media announced that it would sell its Billings cluster to Desert Mountain Broadcasting, an entity formed by Connoisseur Billings general manager Cam Maxwell.[2] The sale closed on July 31, 2019.
