Townsquare Media has silenced Talk 103.9 in Lubbock, ending the station more than seven years after flipping the format.
The company took the station silent on April 1st, ending a 73-run for the signal in the Texas city.
In its filing with the FCC, Townsquare Media pointed to “economic conditions in the market” as reason for the move.
The news/talk format seen on the station was implemented in 2019. Previously, the station had featured a sports talk format. It also spent time as the radio flagship of the Texas Tech Red Raiders.
KKAM-AM is a Class C signal with 1,000 watts of power.
The Lubbock market remains served in the news/talk format by the 790 KFYO brand, also owned by Townsquare Media. Earlier this year, a new conservative talk station, 92.3 The Hub, joined 790 KFYO and Talk 104.3 in the market.
