[edit] History

The 990 frequency was once home to KHVH until it swapped with Oldies KIKI-AM in 1993. They would drop Oldies for News in 1994, followed by a flip to Country music from 1997 to 1999, a simulcast of KIKI from 1999 to 2001, and a flip to Business News in 2001, only to evolve into its current talk radio format by 2004.
