 Under LCRA's ownership, 1530 returned to the air in March 1995 as KWTR, running automated weather and river information and later including additional community information.Public response to KWTR was "fairly good", but the river authority ultimately decided that working with the National Weather Service was more cost-effective, and in April 1997, KWTR gave way to "K-News", an all-news radio station owned by Yellow Rose Communications alongside 92.1 KIKY (now KYLR) LCRA sold the station for $632,000; new KNEZ call letters were instituted in April 1997.KNEZ did not last long; in 1998, the station became KQQA, a simulcast of KQQQ (the former KIKY).
