KSHJ (1430 kHz) is a Catholic religious radio station in Houston, Texas. It is part of the Guadalupe Radio Network, and is owned by La Promesa Foundation.[2][3] Some programming from EWTN Radio is also on the schedule. The studios and offices are located in Southeast Houston.[4]
KSHJ broadcasts at 5,000 watts by day. But to protect other stations on AM 1430, it reduces power to 1,000 watts at night. A directional antenna is used at all times. The transmitter is off Pleasantville Street in the Pleasantville neighborhood of Houston.[5] Programming is also heard on an FM translator, 96.1 K241CO.
