KBPC (93.5 FM, Smooth Rock 93.5) is a terrestrial American radio station broadcasting a smooth rock format. Licensed to Crockett, Texas, United States, the station serves the Piney Woods area of East Texas.

The station is currently owned by KBPC, LLC. KBPC's transmit tower is located on Texas State Highway 7, halfway between Centerville and Crockett.

History

The station was assigned the call sign KCKR on October 12, 1982. It received a license to cover on May 28, 1985, signing on with a country format, and using the "Kicker" branding. On June 15, 1987, the station changed its call sign to KBHT, and again to the current KBPC on February 12, 2013.[1]

KBPC has been a country music station for most of its existence. The only exceptions were under the stewardship of Weston Entertainment, who changed then KBHT to classic rock, and the current smooth rock format which replaced the former "Pine Country". Weston Entertainment sold KBHT to KBPC, LLC. (Also owned by Greg Weston) in 2013, after accusations of sexual harassment were levied against Weston and Corporate station management, forcing the facility off of the air. KBPC, LLC. returned KBHT to the air on June 5, 2013. Once operations resumed, KBHT reverted to country music, changed call letters to KBPC, and renamed "Pine Country 93.5". In 2016, the courts found in favor of Carla Leigh & Jimmy Hill in a sexual harassment case and the two former DJ's were awarded an undisclosed settlement in the case.

Now, as "Smooth Rock 93.5" the station returns a local rock based format to the Piney Woods area. The current format blends current recording artists like Puddle of Mudd with classic rock groups such as Journey, focusing on ballads and adult rock hits.

Previous KBHT classic rock hosts include Jimmy "The Hitman" Hill, Carla Leigh, Big Chuck "The Original Outlaw" Franklin, JR Blue & "Magic" Mike Hubbard, and Jake "The Snake" Auston.
