KC radio guy could be headed to Florida Former KCSP talker Damon Amendolara appears close to landing a new gig with sports-talk station WQAM in Miami. Amendolara, who was let go by KCSP last month, had worked previously at WQAM�s sister station in Fort Myers, Fla. �I�ve been in talks with Miami at WQAM for their night-time shift, 9 p.m. to midnight,� Amendolara told me. �It�s being reported that I�ve been hired, but I have yet to sign anything. �I have an offer in front of me, but we are still in the back-and-forth on a portion of things.
