KTRH 740 AM is a news-talk radio station in the Houston, Texas metropolitan area. It is currently owned by Clear Channel Communications. Anchored by longtime microphone jockeys Lana Hughes and J.P. Pritchard, KTRH primarily focuses on all news during the morning and syndicated talk show programs during the rest of the day. It is the flagship station for the Houston Astros.
KTRH was one of three entities competing for a license to originally operate the ABC-owned television station KTRK, which took its callsign from KTRH -- except for the last letter.
KTRH had its first studio in the Rice Hotel.
