WKSF ("Kiss Country") is a country music station licensed to serve Old Fort, North Carolina. The iHeartMedia, Inc. station broadcasts from a tower on Mount Pisgah, southwest of Asheville at 99.9 FM with an ERP of 49 kW, and a 6 bay (element) antenna. The tower is shared with former sister station WLOS-TV (ABC) and WUNF-TV (PBS).
History.
This station originally launched by Skyway Broadcasting Corporation in 1947 as WLOS-FM,
n't rate quite as high as they did back then with little competition in the market, the KISS Country format has proven to be very successful. The station is consistently number one in both average and cume numbers.
In 2004, when WQNQ began airing separate programming from WQNS, the station moved its city of license from Old Fort, which required another station moving its city of license to Old Fort. WKSF, always licensed to Asheville before that, made this move.
