Steckline Communications has purchased KQAM AM 1480 radio in Wichita from Radio Disney.

The station, licensed for 5,000 watts in the daytime and 1,000 watts in the nighttime, will move to the KGSO studios at Maize and Kellogg, owner Greg Steckline said in a news release. The station will carry news, talk, sports and business as the flagship of Steckline's Mid America ag, news and sports networks.

KGSO general manager Todd Johnson will operate KQAM.

"This was an opportunity that I could not turn down," Steckline said.

Steckline owns radio stations in Garden City, Scott City and Guymon, Okla., along with the Mid America chain of networks which provides programming to 37 stations in Kansas, Oklahoma and Nebraska.
