History
KCIX was originally branded as “K106” with an Adult Contemporary format. By the later 1990s, the station moved in an Adult Top 40 direction. By 2000, KCIX rebranded as “Mix 106” with its current Hot Adult Contemporary sound.
On August 30, 2013, a deal was announced in which Townsquare Media would purchase Peak Broadcasting's stations, including KCIX. The deal was part of Cumulus Media's acquisition of Dial Global; Townsquare swapped Peak's Fresno, California stations to Cumulus for its stations in Dubuque, Iowa and Poughkeepsie, New York, and Peak, Townsquare, and Dial Global were all controlled by Oaktree Capital Management.[1][2] The sale to Townsquare was completed on November 14, 2013.[3]
