KBRZ is an AM radio station on 1460 kHz broadcasting a brokered programming format featuring mostly South Asian-targeted programs.[1] KBRZ originally was licensed to Freeport, Texas, on October 3, 1952 to Brazosport Broadcasting Company and primarily served Brazoria County with strong local news and sports coverage, and a middle-of-the road music format. Sold after the death of its owner, J.C. Stallings, the facility was silenced, moved, and relicensed to Missouri City, Texas, USA, where it serves the greater Houston, Texas, area. The station is currently owned by Aleluya Christian Broadcasting, Inc.[2]
