History

The Hawk was KHOP, which was a Contemporary Hits station during the 1980s but switched to Album Oriented Rock on November 2, 1992 and was known as Rock 104. On April 23, 1996, Rock 104 moved to its new frequency at 95.1 FM and after a few days of an All Elvis music stunt, switched formats on April 29, 1996 to Classic Hits and changed its call sign to KROW and was known as ARROW 104.1 "All Rock & Roll Oldies".

On August 5, 1996, they changed their logo to The Hawk and slogan to "All Rock & Roll Hits", but retained the Classic Hits format. On December 1, 2000, The Hawk tweaked its format from Classic Hits to a harder edged Classic Rock format while The Bob & Tom Show moved over from its sister station at 95.1 FM. Richard Perry is the Hawk's Program Director, and serves as disc jockey from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM. He was formally employed at the legendary, original KDJK-95.1 as production director as well as cohost with Beaver Brown on the morning show.
