History

This FM radio station first started playing pop music as "B-100" in March 1975, eventually knocking off longtime AM powerhouse KCBQ in fall 1977, the latter being the big top 40 radio station in San Diego. B-100 also had major success in the 1980s, as one of the nation's first "hot" adult contemporary stations, melding top 40 hits with an adult delivery by its high-profile airstaff, including Gary Kelley, Gene Knight, morning show "The B-Morning Zoo with The Rich Brothers" featuring Bobby Rich, and later [http://www.jeffandjer.com Jeff and Jer] . In 1994, the station adopted the moniker "Star 100.7". Star 100.7 aired the Bob and Sheri syndicated morning drive show in the early morning hours. The format was previously a hot adult contemporary station, until April 6, 2005, when Star 100.7 flipped to the current Jack FM format. Local hosts, [http://www.jeffandjer.com Jeff and Jer] left KFMB in August 2005 and moved across town to 94.1 FM.

The station conducted a nationwide search for a morning show in September 2005, with a $1,000,000 five year contract. The winner was the "Monique and the Man" morning show featuring Hispanic comedian [http://www.sandiegojack.com/mornings/ Monique Marvez] and former Star 100.7 DJs [http://www.myspace.com/gregesimms Greg] and Sara.
