CJMY and CKMY were previously known as CKCV and CHOS respectively, up to at least 2002. The changes were apparently made to reserve appropriate call signs for "My FM", Newfoundland Broadcasting's proposal for a second FM service, which went before the CRTC later that same year. (The licence in question eventually went to a different company as Coast 101.1.)

In 1997, CHOZ added a rebroadcaster at Stockholm, Saskatchewan with the callsign CFZY-FM; the low-powered repeater is locally owned by Jody Herperger.

In 1998, CHOZ added a rebroadcaster at Kuujjuaq, Quebec with the callsign VF2321, owned by Société Kuujjuamiut.

On November 30, 2012, transmitters at Red Rocks (CKSS-FM 96.9 FM) and Stephenville (CIOS-FM 98.5 FM) have closed; the station has cited the age of the towers and the costs of the upkeep. OZ-FM, however, announced plans to reactivate these stations from other transmitter locations, pending approval from the CRTC.

OZ FM is also available across Canada on Bell TV on channel 951.
