NGEN is a sister station of 89.3 KSBJ, a contemporary Christian station. On February 24, 2016, the KSBJ Educational Foundation announced it was purchasing KUHA, formerly a classical music station, from the University of Houston for $10 million. This gave NGEN a city-grade analog FM signal for the first time. KUHA went dark on July 15, 2016, in preparation for NGEN's launch on 91.7, while changing its call sign to KXNG. KXNG eventually launched the format on August 8, 2016.
