WZNX (106.7 FM) is a rock radio station, leaning on harder-edged classic rock. It is licensed in Sullivan, Illinois, and is owned by the Cromwell Radio Group. The music played is mostly classic rock, along with some music from recent productions.

History

WZNX calls itself The Fox, a reference to the "X" in its call letters, and the "F" in the call letters of its onetime sister-station, WZNF (95.3 FM) licensed out of Rantoul, Illinois. The Cromwell Radio Group bought the radio station in the mid-1990s, kept the call letters and "Fox" identifier. Among the disc jockeys during this time were Chris Anderson, Brian Rickman, Lars Christiansen, and Wes Adams. Current disc jockeys include Scott Lithgow, Shannon Mason, and Wayne Robbins. WZNX has been a Bob and Tom Show affiliate since the late 1990s.
