KKXX-FM was known as top 40 radio station "The New Power 105 KKXX FM", which was at 105.3 FM until July 2, 1998. The call letters KKXX moved to 96.5 FM. KKDJ, an oldies station that was at 98.5 FM at the time moved to 105.3 FM and was known as "Star 105.3". KKDJ changed formats in 2001 to adult contemporary and was known as "K-Lite 105.3".

On September 3, 2004, KKDJ changed formats to a Spanish language Mexican Oldies radio station known as "La Preciosa". On January 1, 2006, the call letters KKDJ were changed to KBFP. The KKDJ call letters are now owned by a Television station in Arroyo Grande, California.
