KUT FM 90.5 is a listener-supported public radio station owned and operated by faculty and staff of the University of Texas at Austin. It is the National Public Radio member station for central Texas. Occasionally there is confusion between KUT and KVRX 91.7 FM, the University's student-run radio station, because both are owned by the University of Texas and are based out of the UT campus. KUT's main transmitter broadcasts at an effective radiated power of 100,000 watts and is located just west of Lake Austin in Westlake Hills. A second station, KUTX, serving San Angelo at 90.1 MHz, was sold to Texas Tech University in 2010 in part because Angelo State University had become part of the Texas Tech University System. The call letters were changed from KUTX to KNCH. KUT was first established under its present call letters in 1925, but was absent from the airwaves from 1927 until 1958. |
