WTKI (1450 AM, "Easy 105.3") is a radio station licensed to serve Huntsville, Alabama, United States. The station is owned by Mike Brandt, through licensee Southern Broadcasting LLC, doing business as "Easy 105.3". Its studios are located in Madison and transmitter facility located just west of downtown Huntsville.
In November 2009, Focus Radio Communications began operating WTKI under a local marketing agreement, broadcasting a combined news/talk/sports format.[3] Some programming is provided by Fox Sports Radio and Fox Business Network.[4]
In 2010, the station broadcast 85 Southern League baseball games as the flagship station of the Huntsville Stars Radio Network. The network also included then-sister station WIEZ in Decatur, as well as WWIC in Scottsboro. The Stars discontinued play in Huntsville in 2015, moving to Biloxi, Mississippi as the Shuckers. They have since been replaced in the Huntsville market by the Rocket City Trash Pandas, another Southern League team.
