History

In 2012, Chaparral Broadcasting sold KZJH and seven other stations to Rich Broadcasting for $3.7 million; the transaction was consummated on April 1, 2013. [3] Under Rich Broadcasting, KZJH and its sister FM stations were threatened to be shut off for a period of time due to a tower dispute with American Tower. The station was renting space on a tower, and was behind $500,000. [4] Rich Broadcasting's issues with American Tower began to involve United States Senators Orrin Hatch of Utah, and John Barrasso of Wyoming. [5]

A U.S. bankruptcy court judge in Utah ruled that American Tower could not turn off the radio stations unless a deal was reached. [6]

Rich Broadcasting sold KZJH, three other stations, and four translators to Scott Anderson's Jackson Hold Radio, LLC effective March 16, 2020. [7]
