KTOK
KTOK (1000 AM) is a commercial radio station in Oklahoma City and airs a news/talk format. It is owned by iHeartMedia, Inc., with the license held by iHM Licenses, LLC. KTOK and its sister stations, KGHM, KJYO, KOKQ, KTST and KXXY-FM, have offices and studios at 6525 North Meridian Avenue on the Northwest side of Oklahoma City.
KTOK's power is 5,800 watts. It uses a directional antenna with a three to five-tower array. Because AM 1000 is a clear channel frequency reserved for Class A WMVP in Chicago, KNWN in Seattle and XEOY in Mexico City, KTOK's nighttime signal must protect those stations. The transmitter is in Moore, Oklahoma, off NE 25th Street. KTOK programming is also heard on co-owned 96.1 KXXY's HD2 subchannel and on the iHeartRadio app.
The weekday schedule is made up of nationally syndicated conservative talk shows, mostly from co-owned Premiere Networks. They include Your Morning Show with Michael DelGiorno, The Glenn Beck Program, The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, The Sean Hannity Show, The Mark Levin Show, The Jesse Kelly Show, Our American Stories with Lee Habeeb and Coast to Coast AM with George Noory.
Weekends feature programs on money, health, home repair, real estate and guns. Some weekend shows are paid brokered programming. Syndicated weekend shows include At Home with Gary Sullivan, Rich DeMuro on Tech, Tom Gresham's Gun Talk, The Weekend with Michael Brown, Armstrong & Getty, Sunday Nights with Bill Cunningham and Bill Handel on the Law. Most hours begin with an update from Fox News Radio.
KTOK, along with the other iHeart stations in Oklahoma City, simulcasts audio of KFOR-TV if a tornado warning is issued within the Oklahoma City metro area. KFOR-TV channel 4 is Oklahoma City's NBC Network affiliate.
KTOK was first licensed with the sequentially assigned callsign, KGFG, signing on the air on January 27, 1927. It was owned by the Full Gospel Church in Oklahoma City. By the 1930s, the station was owned by the Oklahoma Broadcasting Company. It broadcast on 1370 kilocycles with a power of 100 watts. KGFG's studios were housed in the Cotton Exchange Building.
The callsign changed to KTOK on February 17, 1937. With WKY as an NBC Red Network station and KOMA carrying the CBS Radio Network, KTOK first became a network affiliate of the Mutual Broadcasting System. By the 1940s, it had switched to the NBC Blue Network (later ABC).
In 1941, with the enactment of the North American Regional Broadcasting Agreement (NARBA), KTOK moved to 1400 kHz. The power increased to 250 watts, but management wanted to make KTOK's signal competitive with 930 WKY (5,000 watts) and 1520 KOMA (50,000 watts).
