KCIX signed on January 1, 1985, with an adult contemporary format branded as K-106. In 1998, the station moved into a hot AC direction. In 1999, KCIX rebranded as Mix 106, and shifted away songs before 1980 to focus more on the 1980s and 1990s.

On November 16, 2006, Clear Channel Communications planned to sell 448 of its radio stations outside the top 100 markets{{cite news|title=Clear Channel Agrees To $18.7B Buyout|url=https://www.billboard.com/music/music-news/clear-channel-agrees-to-187b-buyout-1347678/|newspaper=Billboard|date=November 16, 2006}} including KCIX, along with Boise's sister stations including KSAS-FM, KTMY (now KAWO), KXLT-FM, KIDO, and KFXD. In March 2007, Peak Broadcasting LLC bought the former Clear Channel-owned stations.

In 2011, Mix 106 silently began adding more contemporary pop currents, moving the station in an Adult Top 40 direction.

On August 30, 2013, a deal was announced in which Townsquare Media would purchase Peak Broadcasting's stations, including KCIX. The deal was part of Cumulus Media's acquisition of Dial Global; Townsquare swapped Peak's stations in Fresno, California, to Cumulus for its stations in Dubuque, Iowa, and Poughkeepsie, New York. Peak, Townsquare, and Dial Global were all controlled by Oaktree Capital Management.{{cite news|title=Official: Cumulus Buys Dial Global, Spins Some Stations To Townsquare; Peak Stations Sold To Townsquare, Fresno Spun To Cumulus|url=http://www.allaccess.com/net-news/archive/story/121835/official-cumulus-buys-dial-global-spins-some-stati|access-date=August 30, 2013|newspaper=All Access|date=August 30, 2013}}{{cite news|title=Cumulus Makes Dial Global And Townsquare Deals Official|url=http://radioinsight.com/blog/headlines/84851/are-these-the-markets-in-the-cumulustownsquaredial-global-deal/|access-date=August 30, 2013|newspaper=RadioInsight|date=August 30, 2013}} The sale to Townsquare was completed on November 14, 2013.{{cite news|title=Cumulus-Townsquare-Peak Deal Closes|url=http://www.allaccess.com/net-news/archive/story/124346/cumulus-townsquare-peak-deal-closes|access-date=November 16, 2013|newspaper=All Access|date=November 15, 2013}}
