KDAR was first put on the air October 28, 1974 by Edward G. Atsinger III, the station's original owner, president, and general manager. In 1986, Atsinger transferred control of the station's license to Salem Communications Corporation, an entity of which he owned half at the time.
In its early years, KDAR aired several hours of contemporary Christian music each day in addition to Christian talk shows. Since the early 1990s, however, the station has reduced its music programming significantly.
