In January 2000, KSBZ switched to a country music format.[3] In 2006, KSBZ switched formats again, this time to an active rock format, before finally settling on a classic rock format a year later.[4] In January 2020, KIFW transferred all its adult contemporary programming over to KSBZ which relaunched as a hot adult contemporary radio station, rebranding as "Mix 103";[5] KIFW meanwhile inherited KSBZ's former classic rock programming with a classic hits format, continuing to be known on-air as The Sound of Sitka.[6]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
