01History
On January 15, 1973, the station first signed on the air. It was under the supervision of Richi Caldwell as a part of the new radio broadcasting teaching program at the Spokane Falls Community College. The original power was only 10 watts.
In 1995, Spokane Falls Community College eliminated its teaching program in radio broadcasting as a cost-cutting move. At this point, KPBX-FM stepped in and bought the station, using it as a full-power translator to serve areas of Spokane where the main signal for KPBX-FM was weak.
On July 1, 1999, KSFC broke off from KPBX to air an expanded format of news and talk programming, including several NPR shows that had previously not been available in the Spokane area.
On August 4, 2025, KSFC changed their format to classical music, branded as "SPR Classical". The NPR news and information programming moved to KPBX-FM.
