KTSN broadcasts at 2,000 watts. As 1060 AM is a clear channel frequency reserved for Class A stations XECPAE in Mexico City and KYW in Philadelphia, KTSN must go off the air at night to avoid interference. Programming is heard on a network of FM translators and repeater stations around Texas Hill Country.
