It was operated as "KIX 106", a country music station, from 1992 until 1997. The first format change in 1998 was made to "Rock 106", where the station played a mix of Classic Rock from the 1960s and Alternative Rock from the 1990s.

The station was also simulcast on [[KIXW-FM]] and KIXF-FM to cover Victor Valley, Barstow and Baker. When Rock 106.5 was shutdown in 2002, Clear Channel sold off the repeater stations to Westwood One (who later sold the stations to Heftel Broadcasting, the current owners of KIXW-FM), and relaunched KIXA-FM as a classic rock station.



The station has updated its Classic Rock presentation in the late 2000s to include music from the 1960s to the early 1990s. The station is still centered on arena rock acts as it still mostly avoids Alternative Rock groups in its playlist.

Since 2002, KIXA currently airs a [[classic rock]] music format branded as "The Fox", removing Alternative and Modern Hard Rock acts from its catalog. After Clear Channel sold the station to El Dorado Broadcasters in 2006 (after the company went private), the station has updated its Classic Rock presentation in the late 2000s to include music from the 1960s to the early 1990s, while still excluding Alternative Rock and Modern Hard Rock. The station performs older hard rock acts, [[glam metal]], and arena rock acts from that time period only.
