KEZQ (92.9 FM, "The Big EZ") is a radio station licensed to serve West Yellowstone, Montana. The station is owned by Scott Anderson, through licensee Jackson Hole Radio, LLC. It airs a soft adult contemporary music format.[3]
The station was assigned the KEZQ call sign by the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) on November 30, 1998.[1]
In March 2007, Denver-based Blue Point Media announced that it was set to merge with KEZQ owner Chaparral Broadcasting Inc.[4] Chaparral Broadcasting also owns four radio stations in Wyoming as well as three stations in Idaho.
Effective May 3, 2022, Chaparral Broadcasting sold KEZQ to Scott Anderson's Jackson Hole Radio, LLC for $150,000.
Station silent
In January 2008, the station temporarily went off the air. In their filing with the FCC, station management stated, "Station KEZQ'S antenna was damaged by an ice storm. Due to the remote location of the station's transmitter site, the antenna cannot be repaired/replaced until Spring."[5]
On July 18, 2008, the station owner filed the first of a series of requests to extend the existing STA order. The station's current stay-silent authorization is scheduled to expire on April 22, 2011.
