History
"BOB-FM" was originally signed on the air in 2004 by Citadel with high acceptance by the Spokane market. It quickly became a low rated station until Mapleton bought it in 2007. In the Summer 2011 Arbitron ratings survey, BOB-FM rated #1 12+.
KBBD was previously known as KYWL ("Wild 103.9"), which played hip hop and R&B and called itself "Spokane's party station".
Before Wild started in 2001, 103.9 played classic rock, and before that, modern rock (when the station was known as "Z-Rock").
