The station first signed on the air in 1992. The station started as KKLB ("Club 92") with a
Spanish-language contemporary hits format. In the early 2000s, KKLB switched to
Spanish Oldies as La Lupe 92.5 FM, but kept the KKLB
call sign. On February 23, 2007, the call letters were changed from KKLB to KXXS as part of a format switch to
Spanish pop-formatted "Digital 92.5". "La Lupe" moved to
KXTZ 1560 AM. Digital 92.5 lasted until November 2, 2009. The format changed formats to
sports radio,
simulcasting
KTTX 104.9 FM. On November 30, 2009, KXXS split from the KTTX simulcast and changed formats to
oldies, with programming from
Scott Shannon's "
True Oldies Channel." On August 15, 2011, KXXS began simulcasting its oldies sound on 98.9 FM,
KXBT. On September 3, 2011, the True Oldies format ended on KXXS, switching top
KXBT. KXXS switched to Spanish-language sports as an
ESPN Deportes Radio affiliate. On July 2, 2012, the station again changed its call sign, this time to KVLR and changed to EMF's
K-LOVE Contemporary Christian format as a result of a sale to Educational Media Foundation. The sale to EMF was consummated on October 17, 2012, at a purchase price of $750,000. KVLR also began broadcasting EMF's Air1 Christian Worship format on its
HD2 digital subchannel. On November 1, 2020, EMF switched the K-Love format to newly acquired
KFMK 105.9 FM and moved Air1 programming to the primary channel on 92.5 FM. ==References==
