Call change planned for AM KYOL

I was the lucky operator on duty tonight at midnight MST when KYOL/1510made the switch from the ABC True Oldies Channel to ABC Real Country.The new slogan is "15 Kicks". The format is classic country.
Watch for aforthcoming call change to KCKK. KYOL is currently operating under anSTA for ND operation with 4750 watts at night.1600 in Denver has changed calls to KEPN. Heard at 0100 MST this morningwith dual KCKK/KEPN ID and prominent mention of corporate ownership byLincoln Financial.
This is in preparation for a forthcoming change fromC&W to ESPN. Lincoln also owns KKFN/950 and this change will give them astronghold on sports in the Denver market. The FCC database already shows the KEPN call on 1600 and shows KCKK as unassigned.KLZ/560 lost the ESPN contract. It is unknown what format they will beswitching to.
