History
The station, which had flipped from adult standards on September 14, 2015, originally billed itself as "Z-Rock 105.3" until October 9, 2015, when it changed the moniker to "105.3 Rock Hard" as they can not use the "Z-Rock" branding due to Cumulus Media owning the rights to the name (Cumulus also has stations that compete against the Times-Shamrock outlets in Reno).[5] In 2016 it slightly rebranded as "Z105.3 Rock Hard". On August 1, 2017 KZTI changed their format to regional Mexican, branded as "Radio Lazer". (info taken from stationintel.com)
