===WKZN===
By autumn of 1969 Zion-Benton Broadcasting had changed the call sign to WKZN (for "Waukegan-Kenosha-Zion-Newport"). The station's on-air moniker was "KZ97". The new ownership had ordered and installed a new [[Schafer automation system]], then sold the three-year-old building and moved the WKZN studios to 2219 63rd Street in uptown Kenosha, which was built as a fire station. By 1971 WKZN was moved from Kenosha to combined WZBN/WKZN studios on the second floor of the Bicket Pharmacy (a former bank building constructed in 1909) at 2700 Sheridan Road in Zion. A second Schafer automation system was added for WZBN programming. In the early 1970s, music programming was the [[Adult Standards]] format which came from a broadcast music service on open-reel tape with PSAs and spots loaded into [[NAB Cartridge]] carousels. The AM and FM music playlists differed slightly, but the Bickets' main focus was on providing ample local news covering a beat from North Chicago, Illinois through Kenosha. News/sports/weather reports were simulcast.
