History

According to Pacific Daily News, the station signed on September 1, 2005 to provide news to Japanese tourists, who were currently staying on Guam. The station would also help Guam residents to learn Japanese language and culture.

In late 2006, KIJI began programming a rhythmic-dance oldies format that they tout on-air as "Retro Radio", which features classic party tunes from the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s. The format proved to be a favorite with listeners, resulting in KIJI going full-time with the format.

As of March 5, 2012, KIJI change as Boss 104.3, the station format as Classic rock radio.

In May 2016 KIJI switched back to classic hits.
