History
On December 1, 1989, it signed on the air, founded by Kay Sadler-Gill, at a time when few women owned radio stations.[1] Sadler-Gill's nickname is "Katy," which is reflected in the station's call sign.
In 2001, the station was purchased by All-Pro Broadcasting for $3.5 million.[2] On January 16 KATY switched their format to Soft AC and rebranded as KATY 101.3 Lite & Refreshing
