WBZU?

Someone wrote WBZU on the back of this decal but I'm not entirely sure those were the call letters of this station from Richmond, Virginia.  It dates to the mid-to-late 1990s when this station seemed to change calls every year.  Other possibilities could be WKIK, WVGO or WKJS.  If you know for sure, send me an email at radiodecals@gmail.com

From Wikipedia: "ABS flipped WKIK to modern rock on August 23, 1995 at 5 p.m. as WBZU, "104.7 The Buzz, Richmond's New Rock Alternative." The success of this station caused Richmond's AAA station WVGO to lose listeners. ABS later purchased WVGO (and its sister station WLEE-FM), changed WVGO's AAA format (and ended the local broadcast of "The Howard Stern Show") and moved "The Buzz" and the WBZU calls to 106.5, while 104.7 became a satellite-fed oldies station as "Oldies 104.7" (the WVGO calls were moved to 104.7) in August 1996"
