Description: 96.7 FM signed on as KVOE-FM in 1947, simulcast with KVOE (1480 AM, now KVNR) with its studio on East 5th Street in Santa Ana. On July 1, 1954, KVOE-AM-FM changed their call signs to KWIZ and KWIZ-FM, but still under the same ownership. By 1970, the FM and AM stations had separate programming.

Fast forward to 1997, KWIZ-FM took on a Spanish-language format playing classic Mexican ranchera music and the name ‘La Ranchera.’

Description: Old Town Records was a record label set up by Hy Weiss in New York City. It operated between 1953 and 1966, and was responsible for several R&B and doo-wop hit records. Weiss, who was born in Romania, lived in the Bronx from the 1920s, and began working as a furrier. In the mid-1940s, with his brother Sam, he started distributing records produced in California by Leon René, soon expanding into distributing records by other companies including Modern and Apollo. In 1953, he set up his own label, Old Town, taking its name, and its early stationery, from that of a wholesale paper business in Brooklyn for whom Weiss worked.
