The station is currently owned by WMEG Licensing, Inc., a division of the Spanish Broadcasting System. Until 2004, La Mega 106.9 FM had an American Alternative Top 40 format. In 2004 the station began to air Reggaeton music along with the original format. In the latter part of 2006 and early 2007, the station began to air Latin Top 40 Rock along with Reggaeton music and airing more pop and hip-hop than rock. As of 2008 the station distances completely from the original format airing about 80% of Latin Top 40 music, 10% of American Top 40 and 10% of reggaeton.
