History

WRZN signed on in June 1989, owned by Management and Marketing Synergy Inc, whose principals were Frank Watson and Clay Brinker. In 2000, the station was sold to Pamal Broadcasting as a part of a multi-station market purchase in the Gainesville-Ocala market. WRZN was purchased by Marc Radio in 2011. In early November 2011, WRZN became Fox News Talk 720. During daytime operation, the station can be heard in Ocala, Gainesville, and Tampa. Its studios are in a single wide mobile home located next to the transmitter towers on North Roscoe Road.
