It was granted the callsign KNSN as a 25,000-watt station in 2001 and played an Urban adult contemporary format. In 2002, the callsign was changed to KCIJ and its format was later changed to Classic Hits, then Hot Adult Contemporary until 2013 when its format changed back to Classic Hits. In 2015 its format changed to Country music, and in March 2015 it adopted its current Christian contemporary format.
