History
In December 2006, ACE Radio Corporation received a construction permit to build an FM station on 99.5 in Yarnell, Arizona. It was then sold to Magnolia Radio.
The station remained unbuilt until 2010, when Grupo Multimedia bought the construction permits for KRPH and KQMX in Lost Hills, California. By this time the CP specified operation in Morristown, closer to Phoenix.
From August 2011 to July 2012, KRPH was silent pending a relaunch of the station by Grupo Multimedia/Deportes y Música.
