KBSO (94.7 FM, "Retro 94.7") is a radio station broadcasting a classic hits format[1] and licensed to Corpus Christi, Texas, United States. The station is currently owned by Reina Broadcasting Inc.[2]

History

The Federal Communications Commission issued a construction permit for the station on February 12, 1991.[3] The station was assigned the KBSO call sign on March 1, 1991,[4] and received its license to cover on January 25, 1993.[5]

On June 1, 2013 KBSO, rebranded as "My 94.7".[6]

On January 16, 2015, KBSO rebranded as "94.7 The Rig".[7]

On May 3, 2015, KBSO adopted KYRK's old format as "94.7 The Shark".

On July 2, 2015, KBSO changed their format to a simulcast of Texas Country-formatted KCCT 1150 AM.[8] In 2017, the KCCT simulcast broke, with KCCT flipping to 80's music and KBSO remaining with Texas music.

On January 2, 2024, the station once again assumed the old format of KCCT, flipping to classic hits as "Retro 94.7".[9]
