Since January 20, 2017, the station has begun featuring more local programming, including a morning show with long-time Springfield radio personality Woody P. Snow.

Charles McCord, a cast member of Imus in the Morning, worked at the station in the 1960s (his first job in radio) before moving on to larger markets.

The purchase was finalized in 2000, but Vision Communications had a management agreement with KADI since 1994, the year Amer formed the company.

On January 20, 2017, long-time Springfield radio voice Woody P. Snow began hosting a local morning show and the station rebranded as "92.3 FM KICK".
