It was operated as "KIX 106", a country music station, from 1992 until 1997.

The station has updated its Classic Rock presentation in the late 2000s to include music from the 1960s to the early 1990s. The station is still centered on arena rock acts as it still mostly avoids Alternative Rock groups in its playlist. |
