KTSC-FM has been on the air since the early 1970s. The station adopted the "Rev 89" moniker in 1995 and become known to the public and students by that respected moniker ever since. It went through many format changes over the years but REV 89 remained a student operated station. Past formats included Hard Rock (prior to 1995), Modern Rock/Alternative (1995-1998), and CHR/Pop (1998-2002).
REV 89's current format has been in effect since January 2002. Rev has kept the Rhythmic Contemporary Hit Radio format due to its major success in the Pueblo market. Rev 89 topped the Arbitron ratings for the first time in the spring of 2003, an impressive feat for a station of amateur talent and limited equipment and operating budget. As of the fall 2008, Rev 89 is the #3 station in the Pueblo market with a minimum of 7,000 listeners every 15 minutes. The audience is primarily ages 12-24 men and women, mixed with a solid base of listeners in the 24-36 age group.[2]
