[edit] History

101.7 signed on the air in 1988 as Regional Mexican outlet KZIA, but would go through a succession of formats (Oldies as KZKL (Kool 102,) and KQEO), AC as KOSZ ("Cozy" 05/02-11/02), Regional Mexican as "Viva" KVVF), and Smooth Jazz as "The Horizon" KAJZ) before flipping to its current one in October 2005. Initially KQBT had a rhythmic oldies format as "101.7 The Beat" but shifted to Rhythmic AC in the Summer of 2006 and re-branding as "B 101.7" adding current rhythmic hits and phasing out most of the pre-1980 songs it had previously played after the format generated low ratings.

The KQBT call letters originated on an Austin, Texas radio station now called KXBT, also nicknamed "The Beat."
