KILT (AM)

KILT (610 AM, "Sports Radio 610") is a Sports/Talk formatted radio station in the Houston, Texas, metropolitan area. The station is currently owned by CBS Radio. KILT shares its call letters with sister station 100.3 FM, a country music station.

The station was, for many years, a leading Top 40 station in Houston. In 1981, when sister station KILT-FM dropped album rock for country, 610 would drop its famed Top 40 format for a simulcast of their FM sister station. The current sports-talk format has been in place since 1995. Over the years, the lineups have changed, but the station has consistently been the top-rated sports-talk format since its inception, with only a few brief, short-lived exceptions.
