On October 22, 2014, at Midnight, KLIO switched from "ESPN Deportes" back to Classic Country, this time as a simulcast of KFTI-FM, which will be sold to Envision, a non-profit blind advocacy group, in order to meet ownership requirements, as the Scripps buyout nulls the grandfathered ownership clause Journal had.〔http://radioinsight.com/blog/headlines/85264/espn-deportes-shifts-back-to-classic-country/〕 The format and KFTI call letters moved back to AM after a 4 1/2 year absence.
