KSLX-FM

KSLX-FM is a Classic rock radio station serving the Phoenix, Arizona area. The Hubbard Broadcasting, Inc. outlet broadcasts at 100.7 MHz with an ERP of 100 kW and is licensed to Scottsdale, Arizona. KSLX simulcasts in digital HD Radio. Its studios are located on North 52nd Street west of Papago Park and its transmitter is in South Mountain Park.HistoryFrom its sign-on on August 1, 1969 to April 1, 1978, this station was known as KDOT-FM, "K-Dot," and programmed the "beautiful music" format. The studios were on the second floor of a building adjacent to the Safari Resort hotel, on Scottsdale Road just north of Camelback Road in Scottsdale, Arizona. Every hour at the top of the hour the station would give the Legal ID announcement: "From the beautiful Safari Resort, this is K-D-O-T, Scottsdale." Just before midnight on the evening of April 28, 1978, the station broadcast its last selection from the beautiful music format. After a short pause, a new call sign was announced on the air, KOPA, and a format switch to Top 40 began. The first song broadcast on KOPA was "Hello, Goodbye" by The Beatles. The call sign KOPA was pronounced "copa" and reflected the last two syllables of Maricopa County (home to Scottsdale and the greater Phoenix metropolitan area). Original KOPA Program Director was Steve Rivers and Music Director, Brian Christian.
