WKOK (1070 AM) is a commercial radio station in Sunbury, Pennsylvania. It is owned by Sunbury Broadcasting Corporation and it broadcasts a combination News, Talk and Sports radio format. The radio studios and transmitter are on County Line Road in Selinsgrove.[2]

By day, WKOK transmits 10,000 watts non-directional. As 1070 AM is a clear channel frequency reserved for Class A KNX Los Angeles, to avoid interference with KNX and other stations on 1070, WKOK must reduce power at night to 1,000 watts and uses a directional antenna with a five-tower array.[3]
