air with a rock-leaning classic hits format, branded as "96.3 KWLZ". KWLZ-FM's license was granted for its West Linn facilities on September 24. On August 1, 2016, at 5 p.m., Alpha Media began operating KWLZ-FM under a Local Marketing Agreement with 3 Horizons, and flipped the station's format to Rhythmic CHR, branded as "WE 96-3". The station changed its call sign to KWEE on August 12, 2016. On June 4, 2019, 3 Horizons LLC announced that it would sell KWEE to WAY-FM Network, whose Christian AC programming was also heard on K283BL via iHeartMedia’s KFBW-HD2. The sale also ended its LMA with Alpha Media, as WAY-FM would move the Christian AC format to KWEE upon the closing of the sale. On September 16, 2019, Alpha transitioned KWEE's format to translator K275CH (102.9 FM), replacing KXTG's Sports simulcast, relaunching as "WE 102.9". The sale was completed on October 2, at which point 96.3 adopted the WAY-FM format under new callsign KKWA.
