KASE-FM (100.7 MHz) debuted on March 30, 1969 then playing an automated "beautiful music" format.
In the early 1980's, operators of KASE-FM took a risk and changed KASE to the "Continuous Country" format which instantly became a hit with Austin listeners and since then has consistently been voted by radio general managers as one of the top twenty "Most Admired Stations" in America. It was the first station to win the coveted "Station of the Year" award from the Country Music Association four times and was given its second Billboard Magazine "Station of the Year" award in 1997.[1]
Over the years KASE has dominated the Austin radio market along with sister station KVET-FM. According to Arbitron ratings, both stations consistently rank in the top three, sometimes #1 and #2.
