KAAZ-FM (106.7 FM) is a mainstream rock formatted radio station broadcasting to the Salt Lake City, Utah area on 106.7 FM. The station's city of license is Spanish Fork, Utah. It was one of the few remaining soft AC stations in the United States until going in a more mainstream direction in June 2009, when the station dropped the calls for its branding and identified it as "Today's 106.5." The station's transmitter is owned by Citicaster Licenses (a subsidiary of iHeartMedia, Inc.). The station's studios are located in West Valley City and its transmitter site is located southwest of the city on Farnsworth Peak in the Oquirrh Mountains.

KAAZ-FM began broadcasting on 106.3 as KTMP, the original format mainly being country, from a transmitter on Lake Mountain, closer to its current city of license (Spanish Fork). In 1984 the frequency was changed to 106.5 (channel 293), the station call sign was changed to KBHV, and the format was changed to adult contemporary. It became the original KBER in 1986, as the original home of KBER which moved down the dial to 101.1 in 1990, replacing contemporary jazz KDAB, and relocated its transmitter to Farnsworth Peak. With the KBER station move completed, the station was then assigned the call letters KQOL on March 20, 1990. Originally stunting by playing a mix of Adult Contemporary and Country, it officially switched to an Adult Contemporary format in November of that year.
