KZJF (104.1FM) was aradio station that broadcast aclassic hits format.[2] Licensed toJefferson City, Missouri, United States, the station was owned byCumulus Media.[3]
The station was assigned the call letters KBQF on October 29, 1999. The call letters were changed to KJCQ on May 19, 2000, to KLIK-FM on November 16, 2001, to KBBM on July 21, 2003, to KJMO on September 12, 2003, and to KZJF on July 12, 2006.[4]
On October 5, 2013, KZJF changed formats fromcountry music as "Jeff 104.1" tosports talk as "104.1 The Fan"; the format was moved from sister stationKBBM (100.1 FM). The format switch was completed two days later, when KBBM joined Cumulus Media's nationwide country branding as "Nash FM 100.1" after stunting for a day withChristmas music as "Santa 100.1".[5]
KZJF was affiliated withCBS Sports Radio and, with the exception of a local programThe Closers that was simulcast onColumbia sister stationKFRU (1400 AM), aired the entire CBS Sports Radio lineup. KZJF was also the mid-Missouri affiliate of theKansas City Royals and carried most national sporting events fromWestwood One, includingNFL football broadcasts and the NCAA men's basketball tournament.
On June 22, 2015 at Noon, 104.1 flipped to classic hits as "Z104.1, Jefferson City’s Classic Hits". Tim Thomas, afternoon host at sister stationKPLA, added additional duties as morning host. The rest of the day utilized Westwood One's Classic Hits network. Kansas City Royals baseball broadcasts remained on the station.[6]
Cumulus Media shut down KZJF and returned the license to theFederal Communications Commission (FCC) on May 25, 2018;[7] the license was canceled on May 30.[8] The classic hits format and Kansas City Royals broadcasts were transferred to sister stationKJMO (97.5 FM). The shut down came in the wake of the bankruptcy restructuring of Cumulus Media; had KZJF not been shut down, it would have been required to divest KJMO.[9] KJMO would itself be closed by Cumulus in 2025.[10]
