History
The station went on the air in 1965. On October 11, 1989, the station changed its call sign from KZZK, using the on-air moniker KZ103 to the current KORD.[2]
As KZZK 102.7, this station operated a CHR/AC leaning format in the 1980s. Towards the end of that decade, it ceded the CHR market to then-powerhouse KIOK (OK95) and became a country music station.

gollark: He did ask some weird things at some point, but not that as far as I know? Lots of random sacrifices and murder in general.
gollark: The one thing with a baby's ribs being crushed is obvious evidence that the entire idea is bad but one idiot in Christianity is an isolated case?
gollark: There is LaVeyan or something Satanism, which is basically humanism rebranded to irritate Christians.
gollark: You're underestimating how many weird people exist.
