KCON

1230 AM KCON was on the air for 57 years in (K) CONway, Arkansas.  From their launch in 1950 until 1998 they operated as a typical private commercial station.  Financial troubles resulted in their license and transmitter site being gifted to the University of Central Arkansas.  The now student-run station carried a CHR format which lasted almost a decade until financial difficulties arose once again causing them to go off the air for good in 2007.
