WKOZ was a radio station licensed to Kosciusko, Mississippi, United States, which operated at 1340 AM from 1947 to 2012. Last owned by Boswell Media, LLC, the station featured an urban adult contemporary format known as "1340 The Groove", which transferred to co-owned WKOZ-FM at closure. WKOZ's studios and transmitter were located in Kosciusko, west of the city's downtown. It was the first station to be owned by lawyer-turned-broadcaster Cy Bahakel.
