KRPH (99.5 MHz) is a commercial FM radio station licensed to Morristown, Arizona, and serving the northwest suburbs of Phoenix. It is owned by Jeff Chang, and currently simulcasts the "MeTV FM" format of KXEG 1280 in Phoenix.

KRPH has an effective radiated power (ERP) of 7,900 watts.[2] A booster transmitter, dubbed KRPH-FM1, previously operated in Wittmann, Arizona.

History

[edit]

In December 2006, ACE Radio Corporation received a construction permit to build an FM station on 99.5 in Yarnell, Arizona. It was then sold to Magnolia Radio.

The station remained unbuilt until 2010, when Grupo Multimedia bought the construction permits for KRPH and KQMX in Lost Hills, California. By this time the CP specified operation in Morristown, closer to Phoenix.

From August 2011 to July 2012, KRPH was silent pending a relaunch of the station by Grupo Multimedia/Deportes y Música.
