==History==
KZIA was originally known as KQCR, which had a top 40 format as "Q103" for many years. In 1994, Rob Norton and Eliot Keller, owners of KRNA radio, purchased KQCR to create the Cedar Rapids market's first radio duopoly. On September 5, 1995, KQCR changed its format to country music and its call letters to KXMX, "Max 102.9". The country format lasted almost three years until Norton and Keller agreed to sell KRNA and KXMX to Texas-based Capstar Broadcasting. While the KRNA sale was successful, Capstar terminated the agreement to buy KXMX. Norton and Keller kept the station, changing the format to top 40 and the call letters to KZIA on June 12, 1998.〔(【引用サイトリンク】Federal Communications Commission">title=Call Sign History )〕 Today KZIA is the only locally owned commercial FM station in the Cedar Rapids market, as most FM's in the area are owned by either Clear Channel Communications or Cumulus Media.
On May 14, 2003, KZIA became the first Iowa radio station to broadcast in HD Radio.〔Stein, 182.〕 The station also airs a Classic Rock format on HD2 and a sports format on HD3 that is a simulcast of sister station KGYM.
On October 31, 2006, KZIA acquired the former KCRG radio (1600 AM) from Gazette Communications. KZIA renamed the station KGYM and moved its studios from downtown Cedar Rapids to the KZIA studios on the city's southwest side.
