KWFP is a commercial radio station located in Sparks, Nevada, broadcasting to the Reno, Nevada area on 92.1 FM. KWFP airs a country music format and branded as "92.1 The Wolf".
History
The station signed on the air in 1993 as KSRN with an easy listening format. In 2000, KSRN moved to a stronger signal at 107.7 FM to cover the Carson City and Lake Tahoe areas. As a result, the 92.1 frequency became home to KJZS with its smooth jazz format. On September 13, 2010, KJZS changed its format to country, branded as "The Wolf", leaving the Reno radio market without a smooth jazz outlet. On November 9, 2010 KJZS changed their call letters to KWFP, to go with the "Wolf" branding. The Evans Broadcast Company, Inc. purchased this station, along with KWPF "The Bandit" in May 2016 from Wilkes Broadcasting. The station joins the "Real" Classic Country Station KCMY AM 1300/102.5 FM Carson City, and 99.1 FM Talk Gardnerville NV.
