 Its original owner was Harry Barker, who already owned WBZA-AM, a daytime station that broadcast on 1410 kHz.The station was originally licensed to Glens Falls, NY and was the local market's first FM station.Both stations were later sold to Soundcasters, Inc. Later, the calls were changed to WBZA-FM, in the early '70s, when it simulcasted Top 40 WBZA-AM 1410, but went back to Country during the evening hours after WBZA's sunset sign off in those days, since 1410 was originally a daytimer.
