K249EY[]

During the FCC's AM Revitalization project in mid-2016, Delta Media purchased 99.9 W260CK in Slidell from Educational Media Foundation, intending to relocate it to Lafayette as a KVOL repeater at 97.7. The move was completed and the newly rechristened K249EY signed on, relaying KVOL from its new location September 5, 2016.
