WETR (760 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station in Knoxville, Tennessee. It airs a talk radio format and is owned by Thomas Moffit, Jr. The studios are on East Magnolia Avenue in Knoxville.

By day, WETR is powered at 2,400 watts non-directional.[2] But because 760 AM is a clear channel frequency reserved for Class A WJR Detroit, WETR's AM transmitter operates during the daytime hours only. Programming is heard around the clock on WETR's FM translator W222BA at 92.3 MHz in Karns, Tennessee, operating with a smaller coverage area.
