KWNC (1370 AM, "La Super Z") is a radio station broadcasting a Regional Mexican music format.[1] Licensed to Quincy, Washington, USA, the station is currently owned by CCR-Wescoast IV, LLC.[2]

The station came on the air in 1958 as KPOR, 1,000 watts, daytime only, licensed to Donald R. Nelson, and utilized an aluminum tower and a Collins 20-V transmitter. During program testing prior to officially going on the air, a crop dusting airplane crashed into the tower's guy wires. The tower crashed to the ground and, with some of the guy wires dangling from its wings, the plane made it safely back to its airport at Wenatchee, Washington.
