The station's studios and transmitter are currently located just west of Wichita State University on 17th Street. A construction permit has been submitted and approved to relocate their transmitter on top of Wichita City Hall, a downtown high-rise. The move will enable them to be heard more clearly within the Wichita city limits. In order to avoid co-channel interference with 95.9 (Hutchinson) and 95.9 (Winfield), KYOM will relocate up the dial to 104.9 FM MHz.[2]. The station is currently silent.
