pop-rock songs for balance) instead of the 1970s and 1980s focus its "Magic" predecessor had. Over the course of 2015, the station added more hot AC material to the playlist, with the complete shift to the format completed on October 1 (most of the rhythmic AC material had been moved to the evening hours), though the station did retain a rhythmic lean overall. By February 2017, KKGQ changed their slogan to "Today's Best Mix & Throwbacks", dropped much of the rhythmic component of their playlist, and dropped the "Beat" portion of their slogan, rebranding as just "Q92". Sale to Rocking M, 'Kansas Country' On April 5, 2017, Envision announced that they would merge their broadcasting division with Manhattan, Kansas-based Rocking M Media, who were also in the process of acquiring KIBB and KVWF from Connoisseur Media. As part of the deal, Rocking M would relocate KIBB/KVWF's studios into KKGQ's space on North Main Street in downtown Wichita, as well as integrate Envision's education programs for the visually impaired into its operations in all of their Central and Western Kansas stations. Rocking M took over KKGQ via a local marketing agreement on April 10, with the sale officially completed on September 22 at a price of $2.5 million. In addition, Harris and Cassidy would be let go from the station on April 19, and the station rebranded as "Q92.3". During its tenure as "Q", ratings were in the upper 0s—mid-1 shares of the Wichita market, and often ranked as the lowest rated commercial station in the market. In the spring-2017 ratings period, KKGQ held a 0.7 share of the market, whereas closest competitor KFBZ held a 3.6 share, and mainstream AC rival KRBB held a 4.7 share. Because of this, on September 5, 2017, at midnight, after playing "Centuries" by Fall Out Boy, KKGQ flipped to country, branded as "Kansas Country 92.3". The first song on "Kansas Country" was "Austin" by Pat Green. Collapsed sale, silence, legal issues, 'The Brand' On March 29, 2019, Rocking M announced they would sell KKGQ and its five sister stations in the Wichita/Wellington/Winfield area to Allied Media Partners, a local group owned by Matt Baty and Tommy Castor, for $6.2 million. Allied Media Partners would take over the stations via a local marketing agreement on April 1. The FCC approved the sale in late May; however, the sale was not consummated due to Allied Media
