KZTI (105.3 FM, "Kalor 105.3") is a Spanish rhythmic formatted broadcast radio station licensed to Fallon Station, Nevada, serving Reno, Nevada.[1] KZTI is owned and operated by Lazer Broadcasting.[5]
History
The station, which had flipped from adult standards on September 14, 2015, originally billed itself as "Z-Rock 105.3" until October 9, 2015, when it changed the moniker to "105.3 Rock Hard" as they can not use the "Z-Rock" branding due to Cumulus Media owning the rights to the name (Cumulus also has stations that compete against the Times-Shamrock outlets in Reno).[6] In 2016, it slightly rebranded as "Z105.3 Rock Hard". On August 1, 2017, KZTI changed its format to regional Mexican, branded as "Radio Lazer". (info taken from stationintel.com)
On August 3, 2023, KZTI changed its format from Regional Mexican to Spanish rhythmic, branded as "Kalor 105.3".[7]
Booster
In addition to the main station, KZTI is relayed by an FM booster to widen its broadcast area.[8]
