It claims to be Cape Town's number one news and talk station, offering news, sport, business and actuality programming, with a high proportion of its airtime filled with phone-in debates.

History
The station first broadcast at 06h00 on Tuesday, 14 October 1997 by John Maytham from their offices on Bree Street. From the start the station sought to position its self to provide an independent forum for Capetonians to swap ideas and voice opinions. Former presenters include the former Sunday Times columnist Jani Allan between 1997 and 2000.

Current studios
The studios are now located at Suite 7d, Somerset Square, Highfield Road, Greenpoint, Cape Town. The station relocated in 2006 after its sister station KFM became a subsidiary of Primedia (PTY) Ltd. and bigger premises were needed to house both stations in one building.
