The local Lake Chelan radio stations have been sold.

Three radio stations that serve the Lake Chelan Valley have been sold.

Chelan Valley Media Group announced the sale of radio stations KOZI AM, KOZI FM and KZAL FM on May 16th to AudioSphere LLC in Manson, Washington. The sale is awaiting the Federal Communication Commission's approval, expected later this summer.

A press release indicated the owners of Chelan Valley Media Group plan to retire and are selling the stations. Chelan Valley Media Group has operated the stations since purchasing them in July, 2021 from Icicle Broadcasting.

The stations are popular in the Lake Chelan Valley and my radio career began on "KOZI Radio Lake Chelan" in 1983, when the station was owned by Jerry Isenhart. KOZI has been considered one of the best community radio stations in the country for almost 7 decades.
