📖 About

95.9 KISS-FM (WKSZ) is a prominent commercial contemporary hit radio (CHR) station licensed to De Pere, Wisconsin, serving Green Bay, Appleton, Oshkosh, and the broader Fox River Valley region. Originally signing on the air in October 1984 under the call sign WJLW with a country music format, the frequency evolved over the years before transitioning into its modern Top 40 identity as KISS-FM in March 2006. Since adopting its hit music direction, the station has established itself as an influential market leader, delivering high-energy pop, rhythmic, and hip-hop hits to a young, engaged demographic across Northeast Wisconsin. The station features a fast-paced, contemporary programming format highlighted by popular localized content, celebrity entertainment updates, and popular morning shows. Listeners tune in weekday mornings for engaging segments hosted by prominent personalities like Eddie, Katie Schurk, and Nick Vitrano, alongside syndicated programming from Premiere Networks. WKSZ frequently hosts major regional listener events, concert collaborations, and community ticket giveaways, cementing its status as a vital pop culture hub for the greater Green Bay and Fox Cities areas. Owned and operated by Woodward Communications (an employee-owned media company), WKSZ broadcasts from studios located on College Avenue in Appleton, utilizing a 4,500-watt transmitter situated near Shirley in the Town of Glenmore. Its primary signal is further reinforced via a simultaneous repeater on 92.9 WKZY in Chilton, extending its reach across the southern Fox River Valley. Accessible through traditional FM receivers, official web streaming, and mobile applications, 95.9 KISS-FM remains an enduring powerhouse of contemporary hit music in Wisconsin.
