KYOM-LP is a low-power broadcast radio station licensed to Wichita, Kansas. The station currently runs under the name "KSUN". KYOM-LP received a construction permit on February 14, 2014.[1] The station airs an Urban Contemporary/Community Radio format, bringing the format back to the state of Kansas for the first time since the demise of KSJM in February 2008.

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]
