KOSY (AM)
KOSY (790 AM) is a radio station broadcasting a Gospel format. Licensed to Texarkana, Arkansas, USA, it serves the Texarkana area. The station is currently owned by Townsquare Media.
The radio station was originally founded in the 1950s by W. Decker Smith, MD as an investment in new technology. His son, James K. Smith, ran the station for many years as the general manager. The studios were established in the same building where Dr. Smith ran his medical practice for many years until he retired in the late 1960s. Well into the 1980s, until the building was destroyed by a fire, remnants of the old medical practice remained on the upper floors including X-ray equipment and examination tables (the broadcasting studios were on the lower floors). In 1989, the younger Smith, who had suffered a heart attack and was approaching retirement, sold the station to corporate interests.
