KDMR (1190 AM) is a Religious formatted broadcast radio station licensed to Kansas City, Missouri, serving the Kansas City metropolitan area. The station is owned by the Catholic Radio Network, Inc. ==History== The station went on the air as KAYQ, with the handle "Fresh Air for Kansas City", and an MOR/News format, competing somewhat with ratings giant KMBZ/980. The format later changed to country music for several years. On December 20, 1978, the station changed its call sign to KJLA under Owner/General Manager Wilton "Chip" Osborn, and played 24-hour disco music until that music phenomenon faded in 1980. Even the newscasts had a disco beat in the background. KJLA switched to "The Music of Your Life" in the fall of 1981, and dropped all local newscasts - yet several months later, the station received a national Associated Press award for its coverage of the deadly Hyatt Regency skywalk collapse. On October 12, 1992, the station's call letters were changed to KFEZ, and on March 3, 1997, were changed again to KPHN. Prior to the Radio Disney format, KPHN broadcast Business News. On July 20, 2002, at 2 PM, Radio Disney made its debut in Kansas City, with the first song being "Complicated" by Avril Lavigne. In June 2013, Disney put KPHN and six other Radio Disney stations in medium markets up for sale, in order to refocus the network's broadcast distribution on top-25 markets. On July 31, 2013, KPHN dropped the Radio Disney affiliation and went silent.〔(Notification of Suspension of Operations KPHN ) - United States Federal Communications Commission〕 In April, Disney filed to sell KPHN to the Catholic Radio Network (a Missouri Non-Profit Corporation), owner of KEXS. The sale was consummated on July 25, 2014, at a purchase price of $700,000, and accepted by the FCC on July 28, 2014. After almost 1 year, KPHN resumed operations on July 25, 2014. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「KDMR (AM)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
