KHBZ (FM)
KHBZ (102.9 FM, "New Country 102.9") is a radio station broadcasting a country music format. Licensed to Harrison, Arkansas, United States, the station is currently owned by Paul Coates and Mike Huckabee, through licensee Ozark Mountain Media Group, LLC.
History
The station launched on March 29, 1963 under the call sign KHOZ-FM. Throughout much of the 1970s and 1980s, the station ran an adult contemporary music format. In 1989, the station upgraded its format to Top 40/CHR under the call sign KWNQ and branding "WINK FM". Unfortunately, it was short-lived, and in 1990, the station dropped CHR and flipped to its current country format, which also brought back its KHOZ-FM call letters.
