Ferris O'Brian is purchasing Regional Mexican KINB-FM (105.3)/Oklahoma City, former Citadel station, from the Last Bastion Trust, reports the Oklahoman. O'Brian, a former host on the station when it aired an Alternative format, plans to drop its Spanish format and return it to Alternative as "The Spy."

Following Citadel's flip of the then KSYY-FM from "Spy" in June, 2004, O'Brien did a similar show on co-owned Rock KATT-FM.

O'Brien told the newspaper that his dream has always been to run his own station, and he reached an agreement earlier this year to purchase the station with his own money and investment from family members.

"I've been working on this at least since March -- actually physically working on this deal," said O'Brien. "But in all actuality, this has been something I've been thinking about doing, wanting to be doing, for the last 10 years."

O'Brien began his career with KDGE-FM/Dallas before moving to KSPI-FM/Stillwater, OK. He joined "The Spy" in December, 2002. (11-20-09)
