The station's studios are located in the unincorporated Clark County area of Spring Valley, while its transmitter is southwest of Lake Mead in Arizona.

Riviera Broadcast Group acquired both KVGS and KOAS from Desert Sky, and flipped KVGS on October 21, 2005, to an alternative-based radio station (with a slight lean towards adult album alternative) as Area 108 (Area 107-9 as of October 2007).

On October 20, 2011, soon after Beasley Broadcast Group bought the station and KOAS, KVGS ended its alternative rock format and flipped to adult hits as 107.9 Bob-FM.

This returned the format to Las Vegas since KKJJ flipped from Jack FM to a simulcast of KXNT as KXNT-FM.
