Oldies/AC: 1977-1999
As KHYL, the station switched to an oldies format, known as "K-HYL". It dabbled with adult contemporary music in the mid 1980s.
The studios were moved to 2435 Marconi in Sacramento and the branding became "Solid Gold 101" on June 6, 1988,[5] and "Oldies 101" until 1991. John Parker owned the station until American Media purchased and re-branded the station as "COOL 101" in 1991.
COOL 101 was imaged in the style of Drake-Chenault (KYNO/KHJ/KFRC) Top 40 Radio delivery, with the use of the Johnny Mann Boss Radio Jingles, top the hour timpani and the booming voice of Charlie Van Dyke. COOL 101 also added the San Francisco 49ers football broadcasts to the station's schedule, which was not a common move for FM music stations in those days. KHYL was usually one of the top 5 stations in the 25-54 ratings demographic during this time (per Arbitron). [Source: Wikipedia]
