By day, KOZE is powered at 5,000 watts. But at night, to reduce interference to other stations on 950 AM, KOZE reduces power to 1,000 watts. It uses a directional antenna with a three-tower array.[3]
On October 5, 1953; 71 years ago (1953-10-05), the station signed on the air. The original call sign was KLER. Four years later, it switched to the current KOZE call letters. In 1961, an FM station was added, 96.5 KOZE-FM.
