In 1996 the school acquired a new 1100-watt stereo transmitter and was able to increase its power. Full 24-hour operation began in February 2005, after a digital automation system was installed. In 2007 the station added an online service.
In the early years, the station primarily broadcast sports and spoken-word programming, including new (live and pre-recorded), drama, and variety programming, with music aired at lunchtime. Music programming increased over time, and a "good music” format was introduced in the 1960s, including Top 40, adult standards, and country music. That was replaced by a rock music format in the early 1970s, and later by an adult contemporary format. The current oldies format has been in place since 1995.
