WKCI-FM (101.3 MHz) is a commercial radio station broadcasting a contemporary hit radio format. Licensed to the suburb of Hamden, Connecticut, it serves New Haven and Hartford. The station is owned by iHeartMedia.
The studios are in Radio Towers Park on Benham Street in Hamden, where it shares facilities with sister stations WELI and WAVZ. WKCI-FM transmits a full Class B signal, broadcasting with 12,000 watts[2] from a 915-foot (279 m) tower, the equivalent of 50,000 watts at 500 feet (150 m).[3] The station's transmitter is on Madmare Mountain in Hamden near the WTNH transmitter site (where WKCI-FM formerly transmitted from until moving to its current tower in 2003).[4]
Throughout the 1980s, WKCI was an affiliate of Rick Dees Weekly Top 40. iHeartMedia also owns a talk station in Waynesboro, Virginia, which shares the call sign WKCI on AM 970.
