WKCS (91.1 FM, "Falcon Radio") is a student-operated high school radio station in Knoxville, Tennessee, broadcasting an oldies and classic hits radio format.[2]
The station is currently owned and operated by Fulton High School,[3] and was included in the school's charter in 1951. The "KCS" component of its call letters refers to "Knox County Schools," and the station's nickname of "Falcon Radio" is a reference to the public high school's mascot.[4] In addition to music, the station features live broadcasts of the school's football and basketball games.[5]
