KYOZ (1330 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station in Spokane, Washington, owned by 247 Media Ministries. It airs a worship music radio format, known as "Worship 24/7".
KYOZ has a daytime power of 5,000 watts. But to protect other stations on AM 1330, it drastically drops its night-time power to 23 watts. It uses a non-directional antenna at all times. The transmitter is on East 42nd Avenue near Regal Avenue in Spokane.[2]
Listeners can hear KYOZ around the clock on FM translator K239CL at 95.7 MHz, powered at 210 watts.[3] On October 29, 2021, KYJJ (94.1), licensed to Boardman, Oregon and serving the Tri-Cities, went on the air as a brand-new license won months earlier as a part of the FCC's Auction 109, simulcasting KYOZ.[4] This simulcast broke off when KYOZ joined the "Worship 24/7" network.
