01History
The station at 105.9 FM originated in a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) construction permit (CP) issued in 1993 with the call sign KAGA. Original owner Karin Wood sold the CP to Grape Radio Inc., owned by Mary Constant, for $45,000 in April 1995. The call letters were changed to KRAZ on March 31, 1997. In early 2001, Grape Radio sold KRAZ to Knight Broadcasting Inc., headed by Sandra Knight, for $325,000. The station finally signed on later that year with a country music format.
Syndicated programming on KRAZ includes CMT Country Countdown USA on Saturday mornings.
