KXTR-LP and its sister station, KTRL 90.5 FM, are operated by students of Tarleton State University out of the radio station located in the Mathematics building on the TSU campus. KXTR-LP's programming is run entirely by student staff and volunteer DJs. Students of all majors work together to run the technical and music aspects of the station.[4]
