WQKT is a Class B station. It has an effective radiated power (ERP) of 52,000 watts. That is slightly higher than the maximum for most Class B stations, 50,000 watts. It is grandfathered at the higher power because it went on the air before the maximums were established. The transmitter and studios are on South Hillcrest Drive at Lincoln Way East in Wooster.[1]
