History
In November 1991, the station signed on the air.[3] KBVA's original owner was Gayla Joy Hendren McKenzie, the daughter of Republican politician Kim Hendren and the sister of current state senator Jim Hendren. The station carried political advertising for Kim Hendren's unsuccessful bid in 2010 for the United States Senate.
McKenzie sold KBVA to Hog Radio effective July 31, 2017 for $1.15 million, which rebranded the station from "Variety 106.5" to "Lite 106.5". It is the only radio station in the Fayetteville market to have an Adult Standards format in 2021.
Hog Radio sold KBVA, three sister stations, and a translator to John Lykins' Rox Radio Group, LLC for $3 million effective January 27, 2021.
