KFGI (101.5 FM; "Skeeter 101.5") is a radio station broadcasting a variety hits format. Established in 1990[1] as KTCF-FM, the station is licensed to Crosby, Minnesota, United States, and serves the Brainerd and Baxter region of central Minnesota. Its studios are at 212 N 5th Street, in Brainerd. The transmitter site is on County Road 6, between Crosby and Emily.
The former "KQ101.5" classic rock format of the station had initially originated at its then-sister station, KQDS-FM in Duluth. On September 1, 2011, KFGI began broadcasting the "SAM FM" variety hits format. This marked the fourth format change for KFGI within a span of a decade. It had previously transitioned from country music to oldies in 2002, then back to country in 2004 after a change in ownership, and finally to classic rock in 2007. Following the discontinuation of Sam FM, the station switched to Jack FM during the Labor Day weekend of 2015.
On September 16, 2016, Red Rock Radio announced that it would sell KFGI to R & J Broadcasting as part of an eight station deal;[2] the sale was completed on December 21, 2016.[3] Following the sale, KFGI became a local station, keeping the variety hits format, but rebranding as "Skeeter 101.5".
