KTSN (1060 kHz) is a daytimer AM radio station licensed to Lockhart, Texas, and serving the Austin metropolitan area. It is owned by Township Media, LLC, a non-profit organization. KTSN broadcasts a hybrid radio format of adult album alternative and Americana, branded as "Sun Radio". The studios and offices are on Manchaca Road in Austin. Sun Radio seeks listener donations on the air and on its website.

KTSN broadcasts at 2,000 watts. As 1060 AM is a clear channel frequency reserved for Class A stations XECPAE in Mexico City and KYW in Philadelphia, KTSN must go off the air at night to avoid interference. Programming is heard on a network of FM translators and repeater stations around the Texas Hill Country.
