KCHK (1350 kHz) is an AM radio station broadcasting a mixed format, including classic country music, but is best known for its polka programming.[citation needed] Licensed to New Prague, Minnesota, United States, the station is currently owned by Ingstad Brothers Broadcasting, LLC, and features programming from Townhall News .[1]

The station is known for playing polka music for the Czechs (hence, the station's call letters KCHK) that settled the area starting in the mid-1850s.[citation needed]
