KCMO (AM)

[2] KCMO is also heard on KCHZ (95.7 FM) in Ottawa, Kansas and on the second HD Radio channel of co-owned KCFX (101.1) in Harrisonville, Missouri.

With a good radio, the signal can also be heard in parts of Iowa, Oklahoma, Illinois, Arkansas and Nebraska.

Hosts include Dan Bongino, Ben Shapiro, Mark Levin, Red Eye Radio, and The Ramsey Show.

Weekends feature shows on money, health, religion, cooking, travel and the outdoors, some of which are brokered programming.

[7] While at KCMO, Cronkite met his wife, Mary Elizabeth Maxwell, and later left to become a reporter for United Press International, before becoming a long-time TV anchor for CBS News.

In 1997, Bonneville sold its entire Kansas City cluster plus three radio stations in Seattle to Entercom Communications.

Due to the way the switch was structured, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) considers KCMO to be legally the same station as the old WHB.

[9] In 2000, Entercom was forced to sell both KCMO stations to Susquehanna Radio after its purchase of Sinclair Broadcasting's Kansas City properties, KQRC-FM, KXTR-FM and KCIY-FM.

[12] In light of Michael Savage's controversial remarks concerning Islam, a group of 70 representatives from various local religious groups including Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism and Islam, gathered in a May 2008 interfaith meeting against alleged bigotry and urged KCMO to drop Savage's program.
