History[]

KDZN signed on in 1969 as KIVE. In 1985, the station became KGLE-FM; at the time, it was owned by crosstown Friends of Christian Radio, Inc, who still own KGLE AM 590. In 1986, Magic Air Communications bought KGLE-FM,[2] switching the calls to KDZN and the format to country, where it remains today. Stephan Marks, through Glendive Broadcasting Corporation, bought Magic Air in 1995, making KDZN a sister station to KXGN AM-TV, which Marks had purchased in 1990.[3]

Programming[]

Programming on KDZN is provided via the Westwood One satellite network during the mid-morning, mid-afternoon and evening hours. News on KDZN comes from CBS.
