KSYL (970 AM) is an American radio station broadcasting a news/talk format. Licensed to Alexandria, Louisiana, United States, the station is owned by Cenla Broadcasting.[3] Its studios and transmitter are located separately in Alexandria.

The station went on the air June 13, 1946, as KPDR on 1490 kHz; it affiliated with the Mutual Broadcasting System on November 1.[4] It became KVOB on November 24, 1948, and moved to 970 the following year.[5] On May 31, 1952, it became KSYL[5] after being purchased for $58,000 by the owners of KSYL (1400 AM),[6] which surrendered its license.[7] That station was founded by the late Sylvan Robert Fox,[8] not the Sylvan Fox associated with Newsday, a newspaper on Long Island. The KSYL callsign was inspired by Fox's first name.
