01History
KTAI-FM began as a closed circuit radio broadcast at Texas A&M University-Kingsville (then called Texas A&I University) in 1969. In 1970, the station upgraded into a full broadcast FM radio station on 91.9 MHz; KTAI was moved to 91.1 MHz in January 1975 as the result of a new international treaty with Mexico, being the only station in the United States relocated under its provisions. KTAI is a student-operated radio station that provides a mix of music, news and live sports programming. KTAI is currently the only radio station in Kingsville, Texas.
As Kingsville's only radio station, KTAI is a student-operated radio station that provides a mix of music, news and live sports programming. The school also offers a campus television station, TAMUK TV-2, which is aired throughout the campus and via local Educational-access television cable TV channel 2. Like KTAI, TAMUK TV-2 offers students the opportunity to work in various aspects and roles of broadcast media while earning college credit. Many students have moved on to work in radio and television throughout Texas. Both KTAI and TAMUK TV-2 are operated under the auspices of the Radio and Television division of the Art Communications Theater Arts Department.
In Fall 2011, KTAI began streaming online in HD. They also joined RadioFlag, a social media and content discovery platform for radio at the same time.
