Fuzion 94.5 Set to Debut on 94.5 FM in Dallas

Encouragement Media Group (EMG) has launched Spanish Christian Fuzion Radio on 94.5 FM in Dallas-Fort Worth, bringing what the company says is the region's first full-power Spanish Christian format to one of the nation's largest Hispanic communities. The former Adult R&B outlet KZMJ will officially become KFZN on July 7. Airing with a 100,000-watt signal, EMG said the station will reach approximately 2.5 million Hispanic listeners across North Texas.

Fuzion Dallas LLC agreed to acquire KZMJ in May for $6 million. The launch makes Dallas-Fort Worth the flagship market for the Fuzion network, which now operates on 18 radio signals across the Southwest.

"DFW is where I grew up, and I am very excited to see Fuzion impacting hearts with Christ-centered music, biblical truth, and culturally relevant programming now at 94.5 FM," said Troy Kriechbaum, President and CEO of Encouragement Media Group.

Brendalis Aguila, EMG's Vice President of Spanish Ministries, said the station is intended to serve as more than a music outlet. "As Fuzion begins broadcasting on 94.5 FM in Dallas-Fort Worth, we are filled with excitement and gratitude for the opportunity to reach and serve the Hispanic community in this vibrant region," guila said. "Fuzion is more than a radio station-it is a daily companion that brings hope to everyday life through music and biblical encouragement."

Fuzion launched in 2022 on stations serving the Tyler-Longview market and has since expanded to Albuquerque, NM, Shreveport, LA, Lufkin, TX, and the former "Ondas de Vida" network serving Southern California and Nevada. The format change also completes the transition of the former "Majic 94.5" programming. Earlier this week, the Rickey Smiley Morning Show moved to sister station KBFB (97.9 The Beat) as Radio One prepared KZMJ for its new identity.
