KBLZ, who signed on in 1998 (as KBKV), and KAZE, whose sign-on was in 1989 (as KWSK, licensed previously to Daingerfield), have been simulcasting their format since 1999. This format has a Mainstream Urban lean to it as it plays Hip Hop and R&B music, the only station in Tyler and Longview to do so. It is the current home to the Doug Banks Morning Show.
