The station was inaugurated in 1996 as Mellow Touch 88.7 with an easy listening format. In 2000, it rebranded as Radio One 88.7 and switched to a Top 40 format. In January 2010, it went off the air due to transmitter problems. In July 2010, it returned on air as Mellow 887 with an Adult Top 40 format. It went off the air sometime in 2015.
