WKLX actually utilizes a non-structured music playlist as an Adult Hits station, a practice similar to that of Murfreesboro, Tennessee-licensed WCJK, 96.3 Jack FM in Nashville. The station is the flagship station of WKU Hilltoppers basketball broadcasts from the Hilltopper IMG Sports Network.
In addition to the main station, WKLX is relayed by an additional translator to widen its broadcast area.
