KDKL (103.7 FM,) is a radio station licensed to serve Okemah, Oklahoma. The station is owned by Educational Media Foundation (EMF). It airs a contemporary Christian music format.
On January 26, 2007, the station was granted a construction permit to relocate its community of license to Okemah, Oklahoma. This change in effective radiated power was to 100,000 watts and a change in antenna height above average terrain to 282 meters (926 feet). The new transmitter is located at 35°15'47"N, 96°22'43"W. The license to cover for the station was granted February 26, 2008.
First signed on as KESC, the station changed its call sign to KOCD on June 1, 2007. The call sign KOCD was formerly used at CD105.3 until it became KJML K105.3 of Columbus, KS/Joplin, MO.
On July 16, 2010, KOCD changed format to contemporary adult variety hits and changed its brand to OKlahoma's New 103.7. The new format, developed by Phil Hall's Audience Bakery (http://audiencebakery.com), featured an uptempo mix of various contemporary music styles from the '70s, '80s, '90s, and today. The mix included Top 40 hits from the '70s, R&B, Pop, Alternative, and Rock hits. OKlahoma's New 103.7 was targeted to adult 25-54. The trademarked tagline was "Building The Playlist You've Always Wanted."
The radio station spotlighted events and happenings around Oklahoma with air personalities John Hart, Tim Howard, Steve Nichols, and Dean Wendt. Former KOTV-Tulsa Sports Director and ESPN SportsCenter host Bob Stevens delivered morning drive sports. Susan Darwin and Bob Crowley delivered news during drive time.
OKlahoma's New 103.7 had a website at OK1037.com and streamed at 128 kbit/s on the website, Facebook, and with a free iPhone app.
KOCD changed its format from smooth jazz to a rhythmic-based AC format in April 2010. Like the former smooth jazz format, the new format was delivered via satellite from Broadcast Architecture and was known as the Bright Radio Network (while still using BA's Smooth Jazz Network air staff, including Brian Culbertson mornings and Dave Koz during afternoon drive). Featured artists included the likes of Mariah Carey, Alicia Keys, Michael Jackson, Sade, Madonna, John Mayer, Norah Jones, and Rihanna, while most if not all of the instrumental music that comprised the former jazz format was eliminated. (1) The network's tagline was "Music That Feels Good."
On May 1, 2011, KOCD went silent and a sale to EMF was pending. On August 25, 2011, the station changed its call sign to KYLK. On September 12, 2011, KLOVE signed on the KYLK signal.
On August 31, 2023, the station changed its call sign to KDKL.
