KSTK is a non-commercial radio station in Wrangell, Alaska, broadcasting on 101.7 FM. The station airs public radio programming from the National Public Radio network and the BBC World Service. The station also airs some locally originated programming.

KSTK is a member of CoastAlaska.

The public radio consortium Coast-Alaska agreed to acquire Wrangell station KSTK in 2019 because of funding challenges faced by KSTK on both the state and national level, as the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) had raised the threshold to receive a federal grant to stations having $300,000 of local and state funding, which was a challenge for a small Wrangell community in Alaska of around 3000 people.
