    Hello Redding We’re On!

    96 K-T-O is dedicated to honoring the greatest rock & roll, pop, and soul music with a spotlight on the biggest hits from the 60s and 70s. K-T-O goes back to the roots of rock ‘n’ roll. Back to the time of big Detroit iron automobiles, fins, chrome, and fuzzy dice. Back to the time when I-5 was brand-new. Back to the time our parents (or some of us) cruised the Miracle Mile and Downtown Redding listening to the Swinging 60 K-V-C-V at 600 AM Redding.

    Shannon created and refined the “True Oldies Channel” in his home basement studio. Later the network launched nationally in 2004.

    96 K-T-O is proud to be the first California affiliate of the True Oldies Channel. Proud of our mission to “Keep the Music Alive”!

    Our 96 K-T-O unearthed this sweet treasure on eBay. We are grateful to our forebears in Redding broadcasting who spun the hits that were heard on car radios back in the day. You can hear these songs and more, remastered for high fidelity on 96 K-T-O.
