KKYX (680 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station licensed to San Antonio, Texas. It broadcasts a classic country format and is owned by the Cox Media Group. It focuses on country hits of the 1950s through the 1990s. It also carries play-by-play of the San Antonio Missions of the Texas League (Minor League Baseball). The studios are on Data Point Drive in Northwest San Antonio near the South Texas Medical Center.
By day, KKYX transmits 50,000 watts non-directional. As 680 AM is a clear channel frequency, to protect other stations from interference, KKYX reduces power at night to 10,000 watts. After sunset, it uses a directional antenna with a four-tower array. The transmitter site is off FM471 in Medina County, about 10 miles west of Downtown San Antonio.[2] Programming is also heard on 250-watt FM translator K285EU at 104.9 MHz in Mendoza.[3]
