KGNT (103.9 FM), branded as KOOL 103.9, is a classic hits formatted radio station located in Logan, Utah.[3] It is licensed to Smithfield, Utah and owned by Frandsen Media Company, LLC. The station features programming from CBS News Radio and Westwood One.[4][5] The station advertises itself as playing "an upbeat mix of classic hits from the 70’s, 80’s, & 90’s."[3]

History

The station first began broadcasting on February 10, 1983, under the call sign KVEZ. [6] After a decade of operation, the call letters were changed to KNUC on September 1, 1993, and eventually to the current KGNT on March 1, 1998. [7] In a brief identity shift during the summer of 2001, the station adopted the call sign KBET on July 20, but reverted to KGNT less than a month later on August 16. [8]

The station is currently owned by Frandsen Media Company, LLC, which also operates several sister stations in the region, including KVNU and KKEX.[9] In May 2021, the licensee filed for a standard broadcast license renewal with the FCC to continue its service to the Smithfield and Logan areas.
