History

KDOT-FM began its Rock programming in early April 1996. Previously it had been a moderately successful country station will the call letters KHIT-FM. In the beginning KDOT played its rock music around the clock with no DJ's. In mid April 1996, the station signed on with its first incarnation of DJ's. The first day schedule was:

Steve Funk was the first Program Director of KDOT-FM while Rob Williams acted as the operations Manager for the all of the stations within the Lotus Reno building. Over the first year, some changes in the line-up occurred, the largest being Steve Funk moving to afternoons and Rob Williams taking over the morning drive shift (a slot he had previously done under "KHIT-FM"). Brooke left the station soon after and was replaced with Arnie States making this the early version of what would later become a very successful morning team, "The Rob, Arnie, and Dawn Show". Replacing Arnie States on the overnight shift was Martina Davis, who to this day is the longest continuous running DJ on the air at KDOT-FM.
