History
editKJDJ began broadcasting February 8, 1988.[2] The station was known as "1030 News Radio" and aired sporting events of the Cal Poly Mustangs.[3]
KJDJ was sold in November 1992 to Jaime Bonilla Valdez, then-owner of KURS (1040 AM) in San Diego and future Governor of Baja California, Mexico, for $155,000. Bonilla then sold 30 percent to minority owners of that station.[4] The new ownership changed KJDJ to a Spanish-language format.[5] In 1995, KJDJ began to simulcast KRQK in Lompoc,[6] and it changed in 1998 to Spanish-language talk from Radio Única.[7]
In 2001, Bonilla leased KJDJ out to Radio Vida Abundante.[8] Centro Cristiano Vida Abundante acquired KJDJ outright in 2007 for $652,000.[9]
