KROI is owned by Radio One and broadcasts at 92.1 FM with an Urban Gospel Format. The station previously had a Regional Mexican format as "La Mera Mera". Prior to its purchase by Radio One, the station was known as KRTS with a Classical format. KRTS was created to fill the void when KLEF, at 94.5 FM, flipped from Classical to Adult Contemporary as KJYY. KROI is licensed to Seabrook, Texas.
Signed on in September of 1983 as top 40/CHR KZRQ "Z92". They took heavy shots against its CHR neighbor on the dial, KKBQ "93FM" and even had a song parody of then hit, Ray Parker Jr's Ghostbusters called "Zoobusters" that poked fun of KKBQ's Q-Zoo morning show. The station also claimed to be the first station to play CD's and the world's first all digital station. By the fall of 1984, KZRQ was gone, the station flipped to a beautiful music format under the KYND callsign. (ironically KKBQ-FM's previous incarnation)
