[12][13] On October 10, 2014, Journal announced that KFTI-FM would be sold to Wichita-based Envision, a non-profit blind advocacy group, under their newly formed broadcasting division, for a price of $1.55 million.
[14][15] Journal also announced that the format and KFTI call sign will be moved back to 1070 AM after a 4+1⁄2-year absence; at midnight on October 22, KLIO dropped ESPN Deportes for a simulcast of KFTI-FM.
[17] At midnight on December 13, 2014, the station, now under the KKGQ call sign, broke from the simulcast, and began stunting with music from blind musicians, as well as construction sound effects and greeting messages from Envision employees.
At a press conference on December 30, Envision announced that Brett Harris and Tracy Cassidy (formerly of KRBB) would host mornings on the station beginning January 5.
As part of the deal, Rocking M would relocate KIBB/KVWF's studios into KKGQ's space on North Main Street in downtown Wichita, as well as integrate Envision's education programs for the visually impaired into its operations in all of their Central and Western Kansas stations.
Rocking M took over KKGQ via a local marketing agreement on April 10, with the sale officially completed on September 22 at a price of $2.5 million.
[24] On March 29, 2019, Rocking M announced they would sell KKGQ and its five sister stations in the Wichita/Wellington/Winfield area to Allied Media Partners, a local group owned by Matt Baty and Tommy Castor, for $6.2 million.
[27][28] A week later, Allied Media Partners announced it would cease operations, and let go all employees, putting the future of the stations in jeopardy.
[31] On October 11, Envision filed a lawsuit against Rocking M in Harvey County District Court, claiming that Rocking M did not meet a payment schedule related to KKGQ's sale in 2017 and owes the company money (Envision was seeking $1.25 million plus interest, costs and attorneys' fees).
[33] In return, Rocking M filed a complaint with the FCC, hoping that the agency would force Envision to allow access back to the stations' studios, as well as to fine the company.
[34][35] On January 16, 2020, KKGQ returned to the air, this time operating from studios in Wellington, and would retain the country format, airing the syndicated "Brand" format from Envision Radio Networks (not related to the non-profit Envision; has since been renamed Sun Broadcast Group, and is now under the ownership of SuiteRadio), subsequently rebranding as "92.3 The Brand".
[36][37][38][39] On August 28, 2020, the Harvey County District Court ruled in favor of Envision, awarding the company $1.2 million plus interest for what it said was Rocking M's breach of contract.
[40] On April 6, 2021, Rocking M announced it would sell KKGQ to Overland Park-based Pinnacle Media (owned by Chad Boeger, who is the president of Union Broadcasting, owner of Kansas City sports talk stations WHB and KCTE, as well as three sports stations (WHBE (AM)/FM and WLCL) in the Louisville, Kentucky, market) for $623,000.
As part of the deal, Union and Envision will conduct a one day camp for blind and visually impaired youths that includes access and engagement to produce and air radio broadcast shows.
