On July 7, 1995, First American launched KDUQ, a repeater of KDUC that transmitted from Ludlow, California to extend coverage along Interstate 40 across the Mojave Desert east of Barstow. At the time, both stations carried a hot adult contemporary music format. In December 1998, First American sold KDUC, KDUQ, and AM sister station KSZL to Pleasant Gap, Pennsylvania-based Tele-Media Broadcasting LLC for $875,000.
In June 2008, Dos Costas Communications Corporation sold the rhythmic contemporary-formatted KDUC and KDUQ, as well as KSZL and KXXZ, to California Communications of Barstow, LLC for $4.3 million.
