Colorful Radio Station Owner Michael Zwerling Announces That He Is Offering Heritage Talker KSCO, Santa Cruz for Sale. According to an extensive article published by the Times Publishing Group, Inc. of California?s Central Coast (and an advertising campaign in TALKERS) legendary broadcasting industry owner and personality Michael ?MZ? Zwerling is offering KSCO and associated properties for sale after a 31-year stint at the operation?s helm. The article states, Michael Zwerling has been in love with KSCO since he was a high school kid broadcasting Santa Cruz High On The Air in the mid-1960s. As the station owner since 1991, he?s created a radio station that?s a voice for pretty much everyone. But now, at 71 ? his birthday was Nov. 9 ? he has a new love in his life, Amy Hao, co-host of the ?China Watch? show on KSCO and a veteran traveler, and he wants to spend his time traveling with her. The couple, who met in 2019, are ?totally into free speech,? Zwerling said. They recently returned from a two-week safari in Africa. ?Amy?s not happy unless she?s traveling, and she wants to take me to all these places,? Zwerling said. That?s why he?s looking for a buyer for KSCO 1080 AM and its FM translators, along with sister station KOMY 1340, and the one-acre of flat land at 2300 Portola Drive, Santa Cruz, overlooking Corcoran Lagoon. The asking price is $1.5 million cash for the two radio stations and the broadcasting business. The asking price is $6 million cash for the property, which includes the Art Deco studio building, garage, parking lot, concrete event patio, plus the three broadcast towers in the lagoon, which give the 10-kilowatt station the power of a 50-kilowatt station on dry land, according to Zwerling.
