The station streams online at its website (959rnb.com), as well as simulcasts on the HD3 carrier of sister station Majic 95.5.
At noon on July 29, 2013, the station stopped simulcasting 1370 KJCE and launched an Urban AC format as "96.3 RnB". The first song on "RnB" was Blurred Lines by Robin Thicke featuring T.I. and Pharrell.
