XENT

XENT are the call letters of a border-blaster radio station licensed to Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas, Mexico.

XENT was the continuation of KTNT ("Know The Naked Truth"), Norman G. Baker's station in Muscatine, Iowa as was forced off the air in 1931 for excessive self-promotion and want of candor. Baker was a rather notorious quack specialist in cancer, operating clinics in Muscatine as were heavily promoted over KTNT.
