In 1998 King Country Radio became part of the Community Radio Network with all programming outside of the breakfast show being fed from a central studio originally based in Taupo. In 2001 all Community Radio Network stations became part of the Classic Hits FM network with programming outside of the breakfast show based from Auckland. At this point the station became known as ''Classic Hits King Country Radio.'' In 2003 the station began broadcasting on 99.9FM from a transmitter located on the stations Huia Street premises as a result the station on FM was limited to Taumarunui listeners.

On 8 February 2010, it was announced the station would close at the end of March, due to declining commercial revenues.
