History
The station signed on the air in the Spring of 1980 on the 104.7 FM frequency as KLBS-FM, and broadcast a Progressive Rock format, which it carried over from its previous 95.9 FM frequency. The station was known as "K-105," and had the slogan of "The Central Valley's Rock and Roll Alternative."
In May 1982,the station was sold to new owners and the station changed its call letters to KSNN and updated their format to satellite-delivered Adult Contemporary as "Kissin' 105." In April 1992, the station switched to its current Rhythmic CHR format, adopted the call letters of KHTN, and branded itself as "HOT 105." In 2004, the station re-branded itself 'Hot 104.7 - Number One For Hip Hop. By 2011, KHTN dropped the "Number One For Hip-Hop" slogan and began to broaden its playlist to include Rhythmic Pop/Dance product, although the Hip-Hop tracks continues to be played at the station.
