The station is one of the pioneers in the adult album alternative format, but co-owner and AOR pioneer Tom Yates prefers adult rock.

The Coast won the National Association of Broadcasters Marconi Award as "Rock Station Of The Year" in 2002 and has been nominated for four other Marconis. The Coast has also received three Crystal Awards for community service.
