KSFC
KSFC has a format of news and information programming, much of it from National Public Radio (NPR). It carries some of the same shows as 91.1 KPBX-FM, such as "Morning Edition" and "All Things Considered." But in middays and evenings when KPBX-FM is airing classical music or jazz, KSFC stays with talk programs. It airs "All Things Considered" at an early time than KPBX-FM.

At this point, KPBX-FM stepped in and bought the station, using it as a full-power translator to serve areas of Spokane where the main signal for KPBX-FM was weak.
On July 1, 1999, KSFC broke off from KPBX to air an expanded format of news and talk programming, including several NPR shows that had previously not been available in the Spokane area.
