History
KSFH was started by Saint Francis High School, with its first application for a construction permit being filed on December 11, 1972. The KSFH callsign was issued to the construction permit on February 12, 1973. KSFH was first licensed March 16, 1976.[4]
Formerly authorized to operate on 90.5 MHz and 88.1 MHz, KSFH moved to 87.9 MHz in 1999. It was one of only two radio stations in the United States to be licensed on this frequency, with the other being a translator station for CSN International in Sun Valley, Nevada.[3]
In 2014, Mountain Valley Public Broadcasting agreed to purchase the KSFH license[5] at a price of $20,000.[6] The new owner's principals were associated with various stations in California, Washington, and Canada aimed at Indians; board member Sukhdev Dhillon was also president of a group that, in 2015, would purchase KMKY in Oakland.[7] While the sale was pending, in February 2015 the station filed to move to 100.7 MHz, citing the "operational challenges" of operating on a frequency not normally used for FM radio.[3] St. Francis High School consummated the sale of KSFH to Mountain View Public Broadcasting on October 7, 2015.[2]
The station's license was deleted on December 2, 2021 after the station's owner declined to renew the license.[8]
