In December 2020, Joeli Barbour's Dexter Broadcasting reached an agreement to sell KDEX-AM and KDEX-FM to Palmer Johnson, a Contract Broadcast Engineer from Kennett, MO. On August 30, 2021, KDEX was transferred to KDEX Inc, a corporation 100 percent owned by Palmer Johnson. KDEX Inc immediately changed the format of KDEX-AM to a Classic Hits format. KDEX-AM had been a 100 percent simulcast of co-owned KDEX-FM.
