The owners of KWON-KYFM-KRIG-KPGM radio have purchased a group of radio stations in Coffeyville.  Kevin, Dorea, Kaleb, and Taylor Potter purchased KGGF - AM, KGGF - FM, KUSN - FM, and KQQF - FM from Radio Results Group in Coffeyville, Kansas pending FCC approval.  The Potters announced their purchase Wednesday. 

Kevin Potter says "we have historically been involved in the communities we operate in and there is no reason to believe that they will not be active in Southeast Kansas." KGGF has been on the air since 1927 and covers a four-state area.  Kaleb Potter commented that "KGGF and its associated stations have served the listeners of Southeast Kansas and Northeast Oklahoma for a long time.  Listeners can expect the changes that come with new ownership will build on that heritage."

The Kansas stations include News Talk 690 KGGF - AM, Classic Hits KGGF 104.1 FM, Country 98.1, KUSN; and Adult Contemporary 98.9, KQQF. Listeners hear Field-Kinley high school sports along with Kansas City Royals and Chiefs, Kansas State Wildcats, and the Coffeyville Community College Red Ravens.
