The two stations featured country music formats but were separately programmed. The AM station had more news, talk and features while KAAM was automated with minimal talk and longer sweeps of music. KAAM was a network affiliate of the ABC Information Network.

In 2006, Caroll County Broadcasting bought KTHS-AM-FM for $3.5 million. [3]
