KGVC-LP (94.1 FM, "Flashback 94") was a radio station licensed to Des Moines, Iowa, United States, and serving the Grand View University area. The station was owned by Grand View University.[1] Prior to its 2007 launch, Grand View College students broadcast by leasing time over KDPS (88.1 FM).[2]

The university surrendered KGVC-LP's license to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) on March 13, 2015; the FCC cancelled the license the same day. KGVC-LP's leaving the air allowed KDRA-LP to go full-time on 94.1 FM; KDRA-LP itself shut down in 2019.
