Information on becoming an Underwriter



KTXK FM is Texarkana's Public Radio Station, serving Texarkana and the surrounding areas with news and information, fine arts, jazz, and easy listening music. KTXK is a member of National Public Radio and American Public Media.

KTXK FM began broadcasting on February 1, 1984 and has shown continuous growth and maturity as a public radio station our listeners can be proud. When we started we had no network affiliation and very few concerts from the major symphonies around the world. We didn't even have a satellite until 1990, but since then we have seen tremendous growth and maturity. KTXK's broadcast day is 24 hours a day, seven days a week. KTXK now operates with a power of 100,000 watts.

Financial support is derived almost entirely from the business and corporate underwriters of this station plus the listener members.  Without this financial support, we would be forced to drop many of our network programs. It is important for you to know how important your contribution is to KTXK and how the public views your support of this station. We hope you will decide that an investment in Public Radio is an investment by your company in the future of this station and that the public will indeed recognize that support by letting you know about it either through their patronage of you business, or by simply letting you know how they appreciate what you are doing for public radio KTXK FM.
