History
KTMT-FM in the 1970s had a beautiful music format. From the late 1980s through the mid 1990s, the station had a Top 40/CHR format known as “Power 93 KTMT” and then “Beat 93” until 2005.
On April 1, 2005, KTMT-FM dropped its longtime Top 40 format to jump on the adult hits bandwagon as “93.7 Mike FM.”
In early 2009, the station changed to Adult Top 40 as “Mix 93” and had a contest in which listeners competed to design the station’s new logo.
On March 25, 2011, KTMT began stunting with a series of heartbeats, then the station returned on March 29, 2011 to its former Top 40 format as "Beat 93.7."
On March 31, 2012 KTMT-FM rebranded as "Now 93.7".
Today’s it’s known as “Medford’s #1 Hit Music Station; 93.7 Now FM” with the syndicated Brooke & Jubal morning show.
