KAGY (1510 AM, "Inspiration Radio Live") is a radio station broadcasting an Urban Gospel format based in southeast Louisiana. Licensed to Port Sulphur, Louisiana, USA, the station is currently owned by Spotlight Broadcasting of New Orleans, LLC.[1] The station originates in Port Sulphur and covers the New Orleans metro. With the location being on the water, the signal travels across the water and covers the coastal areas of Biloxi, Gulfport and Mobile, Alabama.
This FCC assigned call sign had been previously assigned to the college radio station at South Dakota State University, in Brookings, South Dakota. Originally, it had a standard AM transmitter that covered the local area, but due to some incidents, the station was reduced to operate through common-carrier transmitters in the dormitories, which used the AC power mains in the buildings for distribution. The "AGY" part of the call-sign was due to the school being an agriculturally based, land-grant college, thus, KAGY.
KAGY was the Swamp Pop format from 2002-2015. Previously, it was Solid Gospel.
