KINT-FM (93.9 FM) is licensed to serve El Paso, Texas. The station is currently owned by Entravision Communications. The station is airing a format called "Jose FM" & simulcasts on KSVE 1650 AM, licensed to El Paso. Its studio facilities are located on North Mesa Street/Highway 20 in northwest El Paso, and its transmitter is located atop the Franklin Mountains in the El Paso city limits.
In 1975, a license was given for a new station on 93.9 FM in El Paso, KPAS. "94FM" was El Paso's original rock station but changed away from the format in 1981, chasing listeners toward KLAQ at 95.5. Prior to Spanish-language programing, this station also aired Hot AC and CHR formats.
For the first time, in 1992, KPAS became KINT-FM. On March 18, 1994, the station changed its call sign to KSVE, only to revert to KINT-FM on May 20 of that year.
