KTJK (101.7 FM, "The Raider") is a variety hits radio station serving the area around Abilene, Texas and licensed to nearby Hawley.

History

KTJK began airing content under a new commercial license in late winter 2018, adopting its current variety hits format after a seasonal broadcast of all Christmas music.^[2] The license and equipment was purchased in spring 2021 by WesTex Telco.^[3] KTJK is held by local community ownership and is operated by local staff.

At midnight, August 1, 2023, the station began simulcasting on sister KKHR 106.3FM in preparation of a swap to that frequency, replacing the hispanic music format previously on KKHR.

Branding

The station's identity as "101.7 The Raider" is a direct reference to the presence of Dyess Air Force Base in the local community.^[4] The United States Air Force has announced Dyess AFB as one of the operational bases of the under-development US heavy bomber, the Northrop Grumman B-21 Raider.
