KFRM (550 AM) is a radio station licensed to Salina, Kansas, USA, but broadcasts from studios in Clay Center, Kansas. The station is currently owned by Taylor Communications.[2][3] Due to its low position on the dial, KFRM enjoys a wide coverage area, blanketing most of Kansas and surrounding states during the day.
History
The station was assigned the call letters KNNN beginning on 1986-01-06. On 1986-11-04, the station changed its call sign to KICT and on 1987-10-19 returned to the current KFRM, the call letters the station had used for years when it was a major regional country music station.[4]
