KZEY (1410 FM, "Rhythmic Oldies/Urban AC") is an American radio station licensed to serve Marshall, Texas. Magic 1410, Marshall's Old School, is owned by RCA Broadcasting LLC. It broadcasts a Urban AC/Urban Oldies format that is locally programmed. On December 19, 2014, Access.1 filed to transfer the license of KCUL 1410 to RCA Broadcasting LLC of Texas. The FCC approved the transfer to RCA Broadcasting on February 7, 2015. The sale to RCA Broadcasting was consummated March 20, 2015, ending Access.1's 15-year ownership of KCUL. ==History== 1410 KZEY first signed on the air in 1957 as KADO, and was owned by the Caddo Broadcasting Company. 1410 was built at 200 Interstate 20 West, along I-20 and highway 59 south on the feeder road. 1410 was a complete Gates turn-key facility, including a BC500K transmitter and Gates Phasor. 1410 was sold many many times in its early days. In 1967, 1410 was sold and the call letters were changed to KDOX. In 1977, 1410 changed formats and its call letters became KKYR "Kicker 1410". KKYR was a country music station, but only lasted six years due to saturation by the FM country stations. On November 11, 1983, 1410 changed call letters again to KCUL. For 20 years the KCUL stations played oldies (50s and 60s rock and roll). The KCUL call letters were originally on 1540 (now KZMP) in University Park, Texas from 1949-1967. In 2005 (with the acquisition of the Waller Media stations by Access.1) the live, local oldies programming ceased. Access.1 created a trimulcast of 104.1 KKUS Tyler and 1370 KFRO Longview, "The Ranch" (Classic Country). KCUL, for a brief period, switched to Christian Talk from the Moody Bible Institute. KCUL formerly simulcasted the Fox Sports Radio Network with former sister station KFRO. 1410 KCUL is still at its original transmitter site along I-20 at the Hwy 59 exit. The control point is once again at the transmitter and studio site. On March 20, 2015, RCA Broadcasting officially closed on KCUL at a purchase price of $25,000, and the FCC consummated the sale from Access.1 to RCA Broadcasting. KCUL is RCA's first radio station. On April 1, 2015, KCUL changed format from Fox Sports to Urban Adult Contemporary/Urban Oldies. The new station is called Magic 1410, Marshall's Old School. The official launch of Magic was in May of 2015 with some signal upgrades to the facility. On April 24, 2015, 1410 KCUL changed its call sign to KZEY. This was to completely distance the AM from the FM that was kept by Access.1 and went into an LMA sales agreement with Alpha Media. It was also done to better position 1410 as a Rhythmic Oldies station, like the original KZEY in Tyler that served all of East Texas. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「KZEY (AM)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
