WKCE (1180 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station in Knoxville, Tennessee.[2] It is owned by Loud Media and it airs an oldies radio format. The station is branded as 105.1 WKCE, referring to its FM translator's dial position. The studios and offices are on the fifth floor of the Sunsphere in Knoxville.
WKCE operates at 10,000 watts by day, using a non-directional antenna.[3] But because AM 1180 is a clear-channel frequency, reserved for Class A WHAM in Rochester, New York, WKCE must reduce power to 2,600 watts during critical hours and sign-off at night. The AM transmitter is located off Strawberry Plains Pike in Knoxville.
