WKDZ-FM (106.5 FM) is a radio station licensed in Cadiz, Kentucky. WKDZ-FM is owned by Ham Broadcasting. Beth Mann serves as Ham Broadcasting owner/president.
In 2004, Ham Broadcasting moved from their former Will Jackson Road location to a new 4,100-square-foot (380 m2) facility at Broadbent Square in east Cadiz.
The station first signed on the air at 106.3 megahertz on May 18, 1972. It began as an 3,000-watt FM simulcast station of WKDZ-AM for its first ten years on the air. At that time, WKDZ-AM broadcast a Variety format. In the mid 1980s, the station became separate from the AM counterpart, and began broadcasting an Adult contemporary format.
Under the WBZD callsign from 1985 to 1991, the station continued its Adult Contemporary format. In 1991, the station's callsign was reverted to the original WKDZ-FM, and it began broadcasting a country format.
WKDZ-FM broadcasts a country music format and serves Trigg, Christian, Caldwell, Lyon, and Todd counties in Kentucky, along with nearby Montgomery and Stewart counties in Middle Tennessee.
In addition to its usual music programming, WKDZ-FM is an affiliate of the Tennessee Titans Radio Network, which broadcasts live games involving the NFL's Tennessee Titans based in Nashville. WKDZ-FM also serves as one of three affiliates of the University of Kentucky Wildcats radio network in the Clarksville-Hopkinsville market (the other two are WHOP-AM and WHOP-FM). WKDZ-FM also broadcasts Trigg County High School football games on Friday nights from mid-August through November.
