Former sister station KPZK (at 1250 AM), which initially shared its call sign, remained with Citadel Broadcasting (now part of Cumulus Media) when KPZK-FM & another former sister station (now KVLO) were transferred to the trust. KPZK (AM) has simulcast another Cumulus station, KIPR, ever since; it changed its call sign to KFOG in 2019 to warehouse the historic call sign of a Cumulus station in San Francisco.

On July 3, 2012, KVLO split from its simulcast with KPZK-FM and changed to an adult hits format. [2]
