In terms of federal funding making up a percentage of funding, it appears KETR Commerce, KTXK Texarkana, Marfa Public Radio (KRTS and relays), KEDT-FM Corpus Christi/KVRT Victoria, KACU Abilene are the public radio stations in Texas most impacted as 20% or more of their budget comes from federal sources.
