KBLT-LP
KBLT-LP, usually referred to by its former callsign and still-current branding KTRU (stylized as ktru), is a college radio station broadcasting a freeform-eclectic music format on 96.1 FM. The station is owned by Rice University, and is managed by its students. KTRU's original radio tower, FM frequency and broadcast license were involuntarily sold to the University of Houston System, and the station ceased broadcasting on the 91.7 FM frequency on April 28, 2011. It returned to the FM band when it acquired an LPFM construction permit for the 96.1 frequency, which signed on in October of 2015. The low-powered 96.1 facility (which received the random call letters KBLT-LP as KTRU was already taken) only covers southwest Houston. As a result, KTRU relies solely on online streaming to reach list
