CUMULUS MEDIA Classic Hits KHYT (K-HIT 107.5)/TUCSON morning host TIM TYLER is retiring after MAY 27th's show. He has been at K-HIT 107.5 since 2003 and on the radio since 1971, working in the TUCSON market at KIKX-A, KCUB-A, and KLPX before joining KHYT. He also worked at KJJJ-A/PHOENIX.
TYLER said, “All I wanted to do was be on the radio and play Rock ‘n’ Roll records, specifically, THE BEATLES. Of course, the only station in my little SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA town played Country music so I ended up doing Country radio for the first 14 years of my career. I finally got to play my first BEATLES record in 1985 when I joined KLPX-FM.
“After getting up in the dark for the last almost 30 years, I can sleep till the sun comes up now. It won’t take too long to get used to that.”
VP/Market Mgr. KEN KOWALCEK added, “I grew up listening to TIM TYLER on TUCSON radio. It was an honor and pleasure to be able to work with him for almost 19 years. TIM was always a ‘True Pro’, and I will miss having him on the team. We thank him for his many contributions to KHYT-FM and to the TUCSON community and wish him all the best in his retirement.”
