[edit] History

The station went on the air as KEWE with an automated soft rock format in 1973. Four years later, it adopted the call letters KGAB as album rock station "B96" before changing to adult contemporary in 1982 as KZTR (K-Star). It kept the KZTR call letters as "96ZTR" when it went classic rock in 1987, then went Spanish language for four years in the early 1990s as KELF ("El Elefante"). In 1995 they changed their call letters to KOCP and aired a classic rock format branded as "The Octopus'. On August 25, 2010 KOCP changed their format to classic hits branded as "Rewind 95.9".

As of 2011 the station broadcasts as Rewind 95.9 FM, operating on the same frequency as KFSH in Anaheim, CA.
