History[]
KXEZ began broadcasting in September 1998 with a format of standards and big-band selections with live personalities from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. and "The Music of Your Life" format via satellite the rest of the broadcast day. The station was promoted as EZ (Easy) 92.1.
Personalities during that era included Hal Mayfield, Jack Bishop and Ray Harland.
In September 2005, KXEZ began airing an oldies format promoted as "Good Times Oldies" supplied by the Jones Radio Networks (now Dial Global) by satellite. Local traffic and weather reports were aired during mornings and afternoons.
Live, specialized oldies shows aired on Sunday nights during that period. KXEZ also broadcasts local high school sports including football, basketball, baseball and softball.
In December 2006, KXEZ switched to a Classic Country format provided by Dial Global. KXEZ is now known as "The Possum" with recorded promos by country music legend George Jones. After Jones' passing in 2013, they changed the promos to honor the late, great country legend.
In 2011, KXEZ's owner, Ken Jones, decided to end live traffic and weather reports, and the station became totally automated except for high school sports.
