Just in time for Super Bowl weekend. . .

San Antonio just gained a fourth all-sports radio station.

Early Friday, KONO-AM (860) — which, for 20 years previously, was a simulcast of greatest hits music station KONO-FM — was re-launched as CBS Sports Radio 860.

S.A. listeners now will hear up-to-the-minute sports news and popular CBS talk shows on the Cox Media Group-owned station.

However, the station’s most treasured acquisition is “The Jim Rome Show,” starring one of the country’s hottest and edgiest sports personalities, Jim Rome (see photo).

“It’s a great move for us. . .to bring this level of quality sports programming to San Antonio,” Cox’s San Antonio vice president/market manager Dan Lawrie said Friday.

“Additionally,” Lawrie added, “South Texas sports fans should be glad to welcome the return of Jim Rome after a two-year absence in the market.” Rome’s show now airs from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on KONO 860.

Lawrie said the new sports outlet also intends to carry the San Antonio Missions, University of the Incarnate Word football and local high school games.

KONO-AM joins three other local sports stations: the veteran of this market, KTKR-AM, known as “Ticket 760”; ESPN affiliate KZDC-AM (1250); and in the Spanish-language arena, KSAH-AM (720), “ESPN Deportes.”

Lawrie said that KONO 860 has no plans to launch a local sports talk show.

As for KONO-FM (101.1), it remains a music outlet. The high-rated station will continue its long tradition of carrying greatest hits from the past several decades.
