The station antenna is located within the dense residential neighborhood of Lakeland Hills in Auburn, Washington near the intersection of Panorama Drive and Hazel Ave,[1] near the King/Pierce County border. The digital power of the HD radio signal was increased by 4 times in April 2011.
KGRG-FM was chosen to be one of the first college radio stations to be available on iHeartRadio's College section and became #1 in their first month on the site.
During November 2023, the station switched to a Modern AC-leaning Top 40 presentation, moving much of the alternative music onto the HD-2 signal and KGRG (AM).
During June 2024, KGRG-FM went silent due to "...the loss of the transmitting antenna, and other technical problems". The filing with the FCC requested a six-month authorization to stop over the air broadcasts. The stations can still be streamed online.[2][3]
