format had proved to be popular in markets such as Chicago, Fresno, and Los Angeles. With Denver having a large Hispanic population that the format primarily caters to, Chancellor launched the format in Denver as "Jammin 92.5", with new call letters KDJM adopted on June 25, 1999. The new sound of "Denver's Jammin' Oldies" consisted of classic soul music, disco and R&B tunes. Core artists included Michael Jackson, Donna Summer, Prince, Isley Brothers, Barry White, Mary J. Blige, Teena Marie, Earth, Wind & Fire and Chaka Kahn. Later in 1999, the station was acquired by AMFM, which was formed under the merger of Chancellor and Evergreen Media. In 2000, Clear Channel Communications merged with AMFM. This put the new, larger broadcasting company over Federal Communications Commission caps on ownership; because of this, Clear Channel decided to spin off KDJM to Infinity Broadcasting (along with KXKL and KIMN), which was completed in December 2000. By 2001, the station refocused its format as "Jammin' Hits of the 70s & 80s." By 2003, the station was known as "Jammin' Oldies and More" with a broader playlist consisting of some newer R&B music. The station changed its moniker to "Denver's Classic Soul" in 2004. The station became a CBS Radio-owned and operated station with the renaming of Infinity in December 2005.

(The word "free" seemed to confirm rumors that the station would join CBS' Free FM network of hot talk FM stations.) Instead, CBS brought country music back to the station as "Willie 92.5" with the moniker "Wide Open Country." The station played a mix of old and new country songs, including some titles no longer heard on Denver's more contemporary country outlets. The call letters were briefly changed to KLWL on December 21, and then to KWLI on January 12, 2006. (Max Media revived the rhythmic oldies format in September 2010 on KTNI-FM.) In late 2006, KWLI was renamed "92-5 The Wolf" and began focusing on newer country artists. The former format was moved to KWLI's HD2 sub-channel. The station was sold to Wilks Broadcasting in December 2008. When the 2008 Democratic National Convention was held in Denver, then-KWLI temporarily renamed
