KFSH-FM is a radio station in Anaheim, California, broadcasting on the FM dial at 95.9 mHz with a contemporary Christian music format full time. It is owned by Salem Communications. The station is known as "The Fish".

[edit] Station history

For many years, this was KEZY-FM, sister station to KEZY-AM (now KXMX). It was based at 1190 East Ball Road in Anaheim, California. It had a number of formats, including rock music and adult contemporary. From 1993 to 1996, it carried most of games of the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim (now Anaheim Ducks) National Hockey League team.

From 1996 to 2000, the station went through a number of ownership changes from Anaheim Broadcasting to Capstar to Chancellor to AMFM to Clear Channel Communications. In 2001, the station was sold to Salem Communications, which introduced "the Fish" format.

Although KFSH is still licensed to Anaheim, it is now based at Salem's Los Angeles-area studios in Glendale.

KFSH's 6,000-watt signal can be heard clearly in most of Orange County, but only offers grade B coverage of most of Los Angeles County and is practically unlistenable in much of Los Angeles itself.
