KYSJ (105.9 FM, "The Wave") is a radio station broadcasting an adult album alternative music format.[1] Licensed to Coos Bay, Oregon, USA, the station is currently owned by John Hunt.[2]

From 2001, the station was branded as "105.9 The Wave" as a smooth jazz format. After a 15-ear run, John Hunt bought this station from Lighthouse Radio Group in October 2015 and flipped to an adult alternative format on January 18, 2016 while retaining its current identity. John Hunt, who is also the D.J. for the station in the morning hours, will attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the longest, continuous shift. The record stands at 8 days and 6 hours.[3]
