KSTA (1000 AM) was a radio station licensed to Coleman, Texas. The station aired a country music format and was owned by Tackett-Boazman Broadcasting LP.[2]
The Federal Communications Commission cancelled the station’s license on April 28, 2026;[3] it signed off the next day. Owner Rex Tackett attributed the closure to economic and technical issues, as well as the inability to find a buyer for KSTA;[4] the shutdown coincided with the sale of sister stations KXYL and KXYL-FM.[5]
