KVST is a radio station airing a Country music format licensed to Willis, Texas, broadcasting on 99.7 MHz FM. The station is owned by New Wavo Communication Group, Inc.[1] KVST originally signed on as a Huntsville, Texas station on 103.5. The frequency was changed later to 103.7 and then moved to Willis. The 99.7 signal came on the air as KUST east of Huntsville and was used as a replacement for the Willis license when 103.7 (now KHJK) was sold to Cumulus Broadcasting for $32 million. When 99.7 was moved from Huntsville to Willis, the callsign was changed to KVST.

As of July, 2014, KVST filed an application to move from its tower west of Willis back north to the original 103.5/103.7 tower. This will improve the station's signal in Huntsville and Trinity, Texas, while resulting in some loss of coverage in The Woodlands and northern Houston.
