History
The station signed on August 18, 1980 as KVVQ, a top 40 station.[1] The call letters were changed to KHDR-FM in 1997.[2] The station had a pure gold format by 2000, when Infinity Broadcasting Corporation (predecessor to today's CBS Radio) acquired it from Tele-Media Broadcasting.[3] Infinity changed the call letters to the current KVFG[2] and made the station a simulcast of KFRG, a country music station in San Bernardino, California. This lasted until February 16, 2010, when the sports format was introduced.[4]
On November 15, 2011 KVFG began stunting with Christmas music (the sports format moved to 910 AM CBS Sports Radio Hesperia, California).[5]
On December 26, 2011 KVFG ended stunting and changed their format to classic hits branded as "103.1 The Route".
