station, for six years.

Clear Channel Communications sold off the Barstow and Baker stations to Westwood One, which later sold them to Heftel Broadcasting
. KIXA 106.5 was relaunched as a full-time classic rock station.
Since 2002, KIXA has been branded as "The Fox". The focus has been rock songs from the 1970s and 80s with a few 60s titles. After Clear Channel sold the station to El Dorado Broadcasters in 2006, KIXA updated its classic rock presentation to include music from the 1960s to the early 1990s, while mostly excluding alternative rock.
