History

KZUU began as a cable station, KAZU, in the spring of 1977 while the FCC considered an application from the Associated Students of Washington State University for a 10 watt FM license. The construction permit was granted in the spring of 1979, the tower erected on top of the Compton Union Building in August and after testing the station went on the air on the first day of registration, September 20, 1979.

gollark: The attempts to make it linuxy are either giant complex non-backward-compatible things nobody uses, or mostly irrelevant shiny details about Linux nobody really needs.
gollark: Personally, I suspect the thought process is something like:- "Hmm, CC does not look like [Windows/MacOS/whatever the user was brought up on and uses lots]"- "I must make it like this! This is an obvious usability improvement."- "Clearly nobody has thought of this already or, as it's obviously better, it would be used everywhere."
gollark: And some bundled programs, primarily other people's.
gollark: The majority of "OS"es are glorified startup screens maybe with a GUI or something. This is *not useful*.
