KMLK (98.7 FM, "98.7 KMLK") is an American radio station airing an urban contemporary format licensed to El Dorado, Arkansas. The station is owned by Noalmark Broadcasting Corporation.3

History

The station started life as KRIL, and aired a country format in the mid-1970s. When KRIL changed its call sign to KLBQ in 1979, the station dropped the format and flipped to a Top 40 music format under the branding "Q99". Due to major Top 40 competition in the market, the station evolved into a Hot AC format in the 1980s.4 In the 2010s, the station flipped back to country. On July 13, 2017, both KMLK and KLBQ swapped call signs and frequencies.5
