The effective radiated power will increase to 13,500 watts, and the antenna height above average terrain will increase to 635 meters. This will cover nearly 225,000 persons in the Redding, California Nielson metro radio market. The station currently covers 195,000 persons in five counties throughout its 24,000-square-mile (62,000 km²) coverage area.

As of 2021, KZRO is the only local radio station in operations as competing stations KSYC-FM Yreka and KMSJ-LP Mount Shasta signing off for good within the year. KHWA-FM Mount Shasta went silent in 2019.
