KBGY (107.5 FM) is an American radio station licensed by the FCC to operate in Faribault, Minnesota and serving south central Minnesota, with a signal that reaches Mankato, Rochester and the southern suburbs of the Twin Cities.
The station, which signed on in 2001, currently airs a format consisting of regional Mexican music and entertainment programming as "La Mera Buena".
Milestone Radio owns or manages other stations surrounding the Twin Cities area including WQPM in Princeton, KLCI in Elk River, KASM and KDDG in Albany and WLKX in Forest Lake.
Milestone Radio is the managing company for both KBGY and WLKX, which are mostly owned by the Peters Family (need source), a predominantly a Christian-based broadcaster.
After receiving its license, KBGY aired a simulcast of the Christian music programming of WLKX ("Spirit FM"). (source?)
In late 2004, KBGY was leased to a radio group that created its current format, making it the first (source?) Spanish-language FM station in Minnesota.
The station airs Spanish-language broadcasts of select Minnesota Twins games.
On August 4, 2006, the NBA announced that twelve Minnesota Timberwolves basketball games during the 2006-07 season will air on KBGY in Spanish.
KBGY is also a secondary outlet for Minnesota Wild hockey games, when pre-empted by flagship WCCO. These games, however, will be in English.
