Originally broadcasting with just 670 watts of effective radiated power, KBFC upgraded its signal to 3,000 watts in 1970.[5][7] In 1991, the FCC granted the station a new construction permit to relocate its broadcast tower and upgrade to 25,000 watts as a Class C3 station.[8] KBFC began licensed broadcasting from the new site in July 1992.[9]

On December 28, 2020, KBFC began broadcasting in HD. The HD-1 channel is the Delta Country format while HD-2 rebroadcasts KXJK AM 950.
