History

The West Virginia Radio Corporation purchased WKAZ-FM and WSWW-AM in 1995. In 2006, WKAZ flipped from Oldies to Adult Hits under the "Jack FM" branding, using the ABC Radio satellite feed. In March 2007, WKAZ-FM restored the previous oldies format using Tom Kent's "Classic Top 40" branding. It positioned itself as "107.3 WKAZ-FM, Classic Top 40".
On April 25, 2011, WKAZ-FM changed its format to classic rock, branded as "107.3 K-Rock".
On August 8, 2014, after stunting for a day with patriotic-themed songs, WKAZ-FM flipped to an eclectic format as Tailgate 107.3. Positioned as a "no rules" format featuring "Party Songs for Party People", the station played a broad mix of current pop and country music, as well as classic hits spanning as far back as the 1970's.
On April 1, 2020, the station flipped to country music as 107.3 KAZ, flanking sister station classic country WKWS.
