The call sign was previously used for an AM radio station at 1070 AM licensed to Monticello, Minnesota, United States, which operated during the 1980s and early 1990s.

The station first went on the air in 2007. KMOM had previously been known as "105.5 Dakota Country." On May 23, 2020, the station rebranded to its current moniker, "105.5 Maverick FM." This rebrand was part of a dual station rebranding by Dakota Broadcasting in the Aberdeen market. According to Lucas Quail, the Operations Manager for Maverick FM, the name was chosen to "pay tribute to the station's outlaw reputation while also signaling a new direction". [6]
