History

The station was built in late 1973 and early 1974, signing on as KBID and owned by the Mustang Broadcasting Company. The callsign changed to KNIN-FM in 1981 when KNIN (990 AM) acquired it. KNIN AM and FM then swapped formats, with the easy listening format going from FM to AM, and the top 40 format moving to the FM. In 1989, the station to a rock-leaning flavor of Top 40, similar to Dallas-Fort Worth's KEGL but it shifted back the following year.

Moran Broadcasting Company sold KNIN-FM to Apex Broadcasting in 1997; Apex was bought by Clear Channel in 2000, and Clear Channel divested the station in 2007 to GAP Broadcasting of Dallas who later merged with current owner Townsquare Media in 2010.
