WZOC (94.3 FM, "Z94.3") is a radio station licensed to Plymouth, Indiana, serving Michiana and the South Bend area. WZOC has a classic hits format and is owned by Mid-West Family Broadcasting.
In 1966, then AM only station WTCA expanded into FM under the original call-sign of WTCA-FM. The station went through three call-sign changes before ending with WZOC. The station operated under the name of Oldies 94.3 and played oldies, soul, and pop music.
In March 2012, WZOC was sold to Douglas Road Radio. The AM station was not part of the deal.
On February 28, 2014, The station was re-branded from Oldies 94.3 to Z94.3. This was done to reflect that the station had moved away from its original oldies format to a classic hits format.
In September 2015, Schurz Communications, which previously held a minority interest in Douglas Road Radio, agreed to acquire full ownership of the company. The transaction is part of the $442.5 million acquisition of Schurz' broadcast interests, including WZOC, by Gray Television. Though Gray initially intended to keep Schurz' radio stations, on November 2, it announced that Mid-West Family Broadcasting would acquire WZOC and Schurz' other South Bend radio stations for $5.5 million. The sale to Mid-West was consummated on February 16, 2016.
