AM 760 is a United States clear-channel frequency, on which WJR in Detroit is the dominant Class A station. There are only 18 stations on 760 AM within the United States. KGU is far enough away from Detroit that it broadcasts day and night with 10,000 watts, using a non-directional antenna. Programming is also heard on 250 watt FM translator K236CR at 95.1 MHz.
