    History

    [edit]

    On September 1, 1972, the station first signed onasKAWW-FM at 96.7 MHz in Heber Springs, Arkansas.[5] It was the FM counterpart to AM 1370 KAWW and the two stations simulcast their programming. KAWW-FM was powered at only 3,000 watts, limiting its coverage to Heber Springs and its adjacent communities.

    In 1998, Equity Broadcasting bought KAWW-AM-FM. In the early 2000s, the Federal Communications Commission granted a request to move KAWW-FM to 100.7 MHz. That was coupled with an increase in its coverage area, boosting the power to 50,000 watts.[6]

    The station was assigned the call sign KEAZ by the Federal Communications Commission on December 17, 2008.[1] Those call letters referred to the format at the time, soft adult contemporary, described as "Easy." The city of license was switched to Kensett, Arkansas.

    In the mid-2010s, the format moved to contemporary hit radio (Top 40).
