History

KHVH stands for Kaiser Hawaiian Village Hotel in Waikiki (of Henry J. Kaiser ) which today is the Hilton Hawaiian Village Hotel. The original KHVH studios were at the hotel, however the KHVH transmitting tower still stands atop the Hilton's Kalia Tower. Prior to their flip to News in late 1994, the 830 signal was home to Top 40 KIKI until 1986 when it flipped to oldies and the hit radio format moved to its FM sister station (the former KMAI-FM) as "I94" (now "93.9 The Beat"). At the very least, from 1986 through 1990 they each year add an additional year to its repertoire. e.g. if it were playing songs from artists up until 1960, come January 1, they would then add songs from 1961. They would later swap signals with KHVH, then at 990, in 1993 after both outlets became sister stations.
