KVRY-LP 99.5 MHz is a low-power FM radio station serving Santa Barbara, California and nearby Goleta. It was one of the radio stations that obtained a low-power broadcast license during the FCC's LPFM "window" for applications. After obtaining the license, KVRY-LP was granted a construction permit on February 10, 2003, and began broadcasting on February 7, 2006. KVRY-LP's license was cancelled on December 1, 2013 for failing to file an application for renewal.
On August 20, 2014 Calvary Chapel of Santa Barbara was granted a Federal Communications Commission construction permit for a new low-power FM radio station with the same KVRY-LP call letters. The license to cover was granted on June 29, 2017.[1] The city of license changed from Goleta to Santa Barbara, the frequency changed from 96.3 MHz to 99.5 MHz and it broadcasts from a different transmitter site.
