KSCH (95.9 FM) is a radio station broadcasting a Country music format and simulcasts to KSCN (96.9 FM). Licensed to Sulphur Springs, Texas and Pittsburg, Texas respectively, the station serves the Paris area. The station is currently owned by East Texas Broadcasting, Inc.[1]

History

The station was assigned the call letters KDXE on 1982-08-17. On 1999-02-01, the station changed its call sign to the current KSCH.[2]

Current

The station motto of "Today's hits, yesterday's favorites, Star 95.9, 96.9" can be heard many times during the day when listening to KSCH.

Some interactive games are played during the day, such as "Name That TV Theme", and the "Whataburger Song of the Day". Some games are only played on a monthly or weekly basis, such as "Mad Dash for Christmas Cash", "Get Away and Play", and "Live Free For a Month".

On weekdays, J.T. Justice hosts the "Swap Shop", in which listeners sell their used merchandise. The program begins at 8 AM, and continues until they run out of ads.

On Saturday mornings from 8-9 AM, the station airs a NASCAR talk show, which broadcasts from the Texas track.
