KDIZ

AM 1440 KDIZ was a Children's station in Minneapolis, Minnesota from 1996 to 2015.  They were the longest-running "Radio Disney" affiliate in the country.  At its height the network had more than 60 stations mostly on the AM dial.  Minneapolis was probably the only market that once had rival kids stations--ABC Radio/Radio Disney and Radio AAHS.  The two began as collaborators but Disney withdrew from their contract and began competing.  This resulted in a lawsuit that was eventually won by Radio AAHS in 2005.
