SHAMROCK COMMUNICATIONS/RENO, NV launches the latest new radio station to grace the NORTHERN NEVADA airwaves: "106.3 POP FM." The fourth station to launch from SHAMROCK in the past eight months, 106.3 POP FM revives the nearly 30-year heritage call letters KWNZ. POP FM will pay tribute to this heritage by playing "The Hits You Miss" with exclusively pop-genre hits from the last 30 years.
POP FM is unlike any other radio station in the area. POP FM dares to be different by playing a majority of the fun, energetic, classic pop hits you won’t hear anywhere else, with a fusion of current hits. POP FM strives to be an upbeat, energetic, and fun station, regularly playing hits that make you do a double-take, say “WHOA!” and “OH SNAP! THIS IS MY JAM!”
