History

Through the later 1980s, KPKY was branded as “95 Alive” with a Top 40 format. By 1991, the station rebranded as “The New Y95” and then changed to “Oldies 94.9” by 1993. By the late 1990s, the station had rebranded as “Kool 94.9” with a Classic Hits format. In the earlier 2000s, the station became simply known as “94 Nine” with Classic Rock.

gollark: Arguably a game is "more fun" if it's fair and stuff.
gollark: I'm saying - no, CBs are not intrinsically better, but they're given trade value - the ability to get stuff you like - so that affects balance.
gollark: I'll rephrase that. To have some sort of meaningful discussion about game balance, we need to define better somehow.
gollark: We have to define "better" somehow.
gollark: If we go around defining good-ness as an average of players' preferences, then they're bad.
