KSMM (1470 AM) is a radio station licensed to serve the community of Liberal, Kansas. The station is owned by Monte and Doris Miller, through licensee Rocking M Media, LLC, and airs an oldies format as a simulcast of sister station KAHE.[2] The transmitter, tower, and studio were just south of Highway 54 on the east side of town.

History[]

The station was assigned the call sign KLIB by the Federal Communications Commission on July 20, 1960. The station changed the call sign to KILS on March 1, 1985, to KYUU on October 4, 1988,[1] when it was part of the "LS Network" of Kansas radio entrepreneur Larry Steckline.[3]

The format in 1984/1985 was adult contemporary, and personalities on the air at that time was Paul Maldanado, Tim Malone, and John Jenkinson. Max Libby was the General Manager.

The call sign changed to KSMM on February 13, 2008.[1]
