[2] KEZE's transmitter is located in the Antoine Peak Conservation Area in Otis Orchards, Washington.

[3] On December 25, 1992, the station signed on as KSPO under the ownership of Melinda Boucher Read, and airing a Christian radio format.

[5] Kaye-Smith already owned Top 40 station KJRB, so the FM was flipped to a format that would also bring in young listeners, album-oriented rock.

Some of the core artists included Led Zeppelin, Night Ranger, The Rolling Stones, Ozzy Osbourne, and Def Leppard.

With the emergence of grunge and "the Seattle sound" in the late 1980s and early 1990s, KEZE began emphasizing more heavy guitar-based alternative rock, including Soundgarden, Alice in Chains and Nirvana.

[8] As the public appeal of guitar-based alternative waned in the mid-1990s, KEZE attempted a "back to our roots" campaign as a classic rock station in 1996.

KQQB evolved into a Mainstream Top 40 direction, thus leaving KEZE as the only Rhythmic Contemporary station in the market.
