History[edit]


KYXY first signed on in 1960 as KFMX. It changed its callsign to KYXY (pronounced "Kick-see") in the late 1960s after being bought by Walter Nelskog, who also owned stations with callsigns KIXI and KYXI.[2] It was an independent FM station, carrying a middle of the road music format, which was described as "Good Music."[3] The station has kept the same KYXY call letters throughout its history. KYXY transitioned to an adult contemporary format in late 1970s and has mostly stayed with the format. However, the station has become more upbeat within the last decade in an effort to attract younger listeners.


On February 2, 2017, CBS Radio announced it would merge with Entercom.[4] The merger was approved on November 9, 2017, and was completed on the 17th.[5][6]



Special programming[edit]



  • KYXY is known[by whom?] as San Diego's home for Christmas music, playing all Christmas songs from mid-November till Christmas night.

  • In June 2009, the weekend after Michael Jackson's death, the station paid tribute to the singer by playing continuous Michael Jackson and Jackson 5 hits.
