KASA (1540 AM and K294CW 106.7 FM) is a radio station broadcasting a Regional Mexican format. Licensed to Phoenix, Arizona, United States, the station serves the Phoenix area. The station is currently owned by Kasa Radio Hogar, Inc.[1]
History
KASA signed on in 1966, reviving a callsign that had once been assigned to a radio station in Elk City, Oklahoma.[2] It was a religious station, the second in Phoenix behind KHEP at 1280, and was built by Seattle-based Eastside Broadcasting, which also owned four religious radio stations in Washington state.[3]
In April 1980, it built and signed on an FM sister station, KMLE, which broadcast a mix of religious programs and easy-listening music.[4] The station switched from English to Spanish, retaining its religious format, in the mid-1990s.
In 2018, this station relaunched as "La Indiscreta FM" with a Regional Mexican format.
