Cox Media Group has flipped Oldies 860 KONO San Antonio to Business News “Business Radio 860“.
While we await more information from Cox on their programming plans, KONO has been noted airing Bloomberg Radio programming all day today. The move marks the end of the revamped 1960s/70s Oldies format that relaunched on KONO in January 2017. The station had been trending up in the Nielsen Audio ratings 1.4 – 1.9 – 2.1 over the past three months while flanking market-leading sister Classic Hits 101.1 KONO-FM.
KONO was one of the heritage Top 40 stations in San Antonio through the 1960s through early 1980s. It would flip to Oldies in 1988 adding a simulcast on move-in 101.1 KONO-FM in February 1991 that would last until the AM started a three-year run with CBS Sports Radio in 2014.
