Reier Broadcasting Company was an American radio broadcasting company based in Bozeman, Montana. Started in 1975, it was owned by the Reier Family; Bill Reier was the president. The Reier Broadcasting Company rebranded itself in 2005 as the KBOZ Radio Stations Group. The offices and all stations' studios were located southwest of Bozeman at "Radio Ranch", 5445 Johnson Road.
On June 1, 2018, Reier Broadcasting took its five stations silent. The company cited owner Bill Reier's long-term illness and several lingering issues, including station license renewals delayed by outstanding Federal Communications Commission (FCC) regulatory fees dating back to 2012.[1]
At the time of the shutdown, Reier operated five radio stations in the Bozeman area:
| Call sign | Frequency | City of license | Format |
|---|---|---|---|
| KBOZ | 1090 AM | Bozeman, Montana | Talk/personality |
| KBOZ-FM | 99.9 FM | Bozeman, Montana | Country |
| KOBB | 1230 AM | Bozeman, Montana | Sports talk (ESPN Radio) |
| KOBB-FM | 93.7 FM | Livingston, Montana | Oldies |
| KOZB | 97.5 FM | Bozeman, Montana | Classic rock |
Bill Reier died on September 2, 2019.[2] All five station's licenses were involuntary assigned to Richard J. Samson, as Receiver, effective December 6, 2019. The five stations were acquired by Desert Mountain Broadcasting in 2021.[3]
