KCMN , from his father's radio company, Crawford Broadcasting, for an undisclosed amount. (Formally, KCBR was purchased by a new company called DJR Broadcasting, owned by Crawford.) The new owner said that the formats and staffing would stay the same at the stations.

Following the purchase, Crawford was to continue to manageKAAM in Dallas.
