History background
The original plans were for the station to have a frequency of 93.5. The unbuilt construction permit was held by Alma Corporation, who sold the station to MidNation Media for $25,000, outbidding Randy Michaels’ Radioactive LLC by $2,000 in the 2006 FCC auction. Subsequently, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) said that it was selling the construction permit to MidNation for $60,000. From that point on, the deal was closed.[1]
Effective September 4, 2018, MidNation Media LLC sold KZRN to Hirange Media Corp Inc for $65,000.
