History

The first call sign of the station was KELR. The radio equipment was installed in 1962. The call sign was changed to KCAN beginning on 3 November 1978. On 18 July 1985, the station changed its call sign to the current KZUE. [4] The station attempted to trade on the goodwill of the rock format under those call letters on what is now KJYO from 1977–81, though it was not successful.

The station was then passed down to George Calderon Ochoa, and he made the station the first one in Oklahoma City with a Spanish-language format, before selling the station down the line to Nancy Galvan.
