After RKO General sold KFRC in 1986, the station went through a number of ownership changes. Does anyone know the order of transfers?

Because David didn't say it, I will. RKO did not finally sell KFRC until 1990.
Any idea why the sale to Daytona Group did not close?
I didn't even know about it until your post. At that point, I was seven years into my TV career and not really tracking the radio business.
