WZKT (105.9 FM, "Cat Country") is a radio station licensed to serve Lewes, Delaware. The station, which began broadcasting in 1992, is currently owned by Delmarva Broadcasting Company. WZKT airs a country music format in conjunction with sister station WKTT.[2]
This station received its original construction permit from the Federal Communications Commission on May 10, 1990.[3] The new station was assigned the call letters WXJN by the FCC on July 12, 1990.[1]
With construction essentially complete, permit holder Susan Marie Beth Romaine applied to the FCC in June 1992 to transfer that permit to Prettyman Broadcasting Company. The transfer was approved by the FCC on July 28, 1992, and the transaction was consummated on August 14, 1992.[4] After one minor modification and an extension for time, WXJN received its license to cover from the FCC on December 21, 1992.[5]
In May 1997, Prettyman Broadcasting Company reached an agreement to sell this station to Delmarva Broadcasting Company. The deal was approved by the FCC on June 26, 1997, and the transaction was consummated on August 28, 1997.[6]
The station, previously licensed as WXJN, was assigned the WZKT call sign by the FCC on March 31, 2009.[1]
