WRKH (96.1 FM) is the call sign for the Mobile, Alabama classic rock formatted radio station known as "96.1 The Rocket". The station is owned by San Antonio–based iHeartMedia. Its studios are located inside the building of unrelated television station WKRG-TV on Broadcast Drive in Mobile, and the transmitter is near Spanish Fort, Alabama.
Programming
[edit | edit source]The station is primarily classic rock. Since 2002, the station has competed with WZNF, a Gulfport, Mississippi, classic rock station. That station's signal can reach Mobile, WRKH's primary listening area. WRKH also broadcasts the syndicated John Boy and Billy Big Show on Monday-Saturday mornings, and Chip Nelson on afternoons. Starting with the 2016 season, as part of an agreement with iHeartMedia and the University of South Alabama, coverage of USA Jaguars football moved from WMXC to WRKH.
