 The station began its broadcasting activities under Freedom Network's direction in 1986 with a Southern Gospel format with temporary callsign KLCA before making a permanent switch to KDFT two months later.Then in 1990, the station was sold to Way Broadcasting, and slightly changed its format to urban contemporary gospel, much like KHVN-AM.From that day on, it was known as "The Rainbow Across North Texas" (the station's slogan).
