In October 2009, the station changed its call sign to KVTT on the 1st then to KJSA on the 14th.
The station fell silent on October 13, 2009,[3] making it one of the shortest-running Christian music/talk formatted stations in the nation.[citation needed] On October 29, the station applied to the FCC for special temporary authority to remain silent for financial reasons while a suitable buyer for the station and its assets was found.[4] Its sister station KVTT suffered the same fate on July 12, 2010, with control of that station returned to its owners, who brokered its broadcast day to Covenant. The Commission granted the station this authority on February 16, 2010, with a scheduled expiration date of August 15, 2010.[4]
Covenant reached an agreement to sell KJSA back to the Educational Media Foundation for a cash price of $200,000 on February 4, 2010.
