What is "kwmt"

KWMT (540 AM) is a radio station licensed to Fort Dodge, Iowa, whose format is country music. The station's frequency is 540 kHz, and broadcasts at a power of 5,000 watts during the day and 170 watts at night. KWMT was previously co-owned with WMT consequently the call WMT was used with the addition of the necessary K. KWMT operates with a 2 tower directional antenna system with much of its power headed south of Fort dodge and very little headed north. Due to its huge coverage on 540, it limits its coverage to the north to protect a station in Canada. During the daylight hours, KWMT has regular listeners as far as Oklahoma, western Nebraska, eastern Illinois and all of Iowa. KWMT is located in one of the areas of high ground conductivity which makes the 540 signal glide along the prairies.

KWMT — whose slogan is "True Country" — is owned by Alpha Media. It's studios are with KKEZ. Previous owner Three Eagles Communications purchased the stations from Clear Channel Communications in 2007.
