KRDY (1160 kHz) is an AM radio station in San Antonio, Texas. It is owned by the non-profit organization Relevant Radio, Inc., based in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The station is an affiliate of its catholictalk radio network.

By day, KRDY is powered at 10,000 watts. But 1160 AM is a clear channel frequency reserved for Class A station KSL in Salt Lake City. So at night, to avoid interference, KRDY reduces power to 1,000 watts. It uses a directional antenna with a three-tower array. The transmitter is off Braun Road, near Loop 1604, in San Antonio.[2]
