History

The station was assigned the call letters KBHQ on July 17, 1998. On July 20, 2005, the station changed its call sign to KWLY then again on November 4, 2005, to the current KJUL.[2]

The station was originally licensed in 2001 in Moapa Valley under the call sign KBHQ; it signed on July 1.[3] In 2005, KBHQ was upgraded to a full class-C1 facility by increase of tower height and 100 kW ERP, with a signal serving the NorthEast Las Vegas market metro area. KBHQ became classic country "Willie" KWLY on July 20, 2005, and then on November 7 adopted the adult-standards format abandoned by Beasley Broadcasting's KCYE, which switched to country music.
