[edit] 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 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, 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 Monique Marvez and former Star 100.7 DJs Greg and Sara. Greg is the 'Man' and Sara is a co-host. The show started on January 23, 2006.
