Beginnings

This frequency made its debut on November 8, 1974 as a Yuba City radio station, and held the call sign KHEX.[1][2] In 2003, the station was sold to First Broadcasting who relaunched the station as an 80's station settling on the name of "Flash 103.9". In 2005, the station was sold to Bustos Media who then spun the station to Salem Communications. Salem then moved their Fish format over from 105.5 to 103.9.
