The station is currently owned by the Struthers Board of Education [3] [4] and the broadcast studio is located inside the Struthers Fieldhouse.
Outside of local nationality programming on Saturdays, WKTL's programming is provided by Akron Public Schools-owned WAPS 91.3 FM "The Summit" in Akron, which airs an adult album alternative (AAA) music format. [5]
WKTL began broadcasting on September 13, 1965. and the station's website claims it was the first all student-staffed radio station in the country.
The station was conceived by Struthers High School speech instructor Stephen J. Gercevich, a former radio announcer, to "provide a unique laboratory to put classroom techniques to use". [6]
