KSOX (1240 AM, "Visión Hispana") is a Spanish-language religious radio station in Raymondville, Texas.
History
[edit]KSOX received its license in 1957, reviving a set of calls once used on 1530 AM until it became KGBS in 1953.
KSOX for much of the 1990s and 2000s was an ESPN Radio affiliate, later switching to Fox Sports Radio.[2] In 2010, KSOX was sold to Visión Hispana; it simulcast Fox Sports Radio with KVJY until the sale was finalized, at which time KSOX changed formats to Spanish-language religion.[3]
