The Talk Station is working to provide our broadcasts to as many people as possible, with as many options as possible. WMKT broadcast live 24 hours a day on 1270AM, streaming live on the internet, and now broadcasts live on the FM sub-carrier of 105.9FM WKHQ!!!
(NOW LIVE ON 92.1 FM... click here for more info!)
What is a sub-carrier?
FM radio transmitters also generate other frequencies than a standard FM radio can hear, these are known as sub-carrier frequencies (sometimes called SCA radio). WKHQ (known on the air as 106 KHQ) is heard on a standard FM radio (called the main carrier in the radio business), at 105.9FM, there are other frequencies (known as the sub-carrier frequencies) beyond what a standard FM radio can receive available for broadcast use. Being co-owned stations, WMKT has chosen to take advantage of one of these KHQ frequencies (67 kHz) and broadcast The Talk Station programming there as well for you to enjoy. A special sub-carrier radio is required to receive WMKT on the KHQ sub-carrier. The programming on the sub-carrier channel is the same programming heard on 1270AM 24 hours a day.
Sub-carrier radios work mostly the same as other radios. To hear WMKT using a sub-carrier radio, simply tune to 105.9FM. After tuning the radio to 105.9FM, using the sub-carrier switch, select the 67 kHz frequency and there we are!
WMKT does not sell sub-carrier radios. However provided below is a selected list of some SCA/sub-carrier radios available for purchase from other distributors. WMKT does not recommend or endorse any particular brand, store, or manufacturer. We provide the sub-carrier broadcast as another option to be able to receive The Talk Station as a public service to you the listener.
