History

KFLY began broadcasting on October 1, 1966, broadcasting

hot adult contemporary format. By 2000, the station was branded as "Mix 101-5 KFLY" under Clear Channel's ownership. After completing its move to KDUK-FM's tower in 2002, vastly increasing coverage, KFLY briefly stunted with quick song clips, and then flipped to active rock as “101-5 K-Fly” broadcasting from Eugene, Oregon.[2][3]

On July 15, 2015, KFLY's entire airstaff was let go, indicating a format change was imminent.[4] On July 30, 2015, at Noon, KFLY changed its format to adult album alternative, branded as "World Class Rock 101.5".[5][6][7][8]

On June 4, 2017, KFLY dropped its AAA format and began

text-to-speech countdown (using Microsoft David) to 3 p.m. the following day. At that time, the station flipped to country as "US 101".[9][10][11][12]
