KKVV (1060 AM) is a radio station broadcasting a religious radio format.[1] Licensed to Las Vegas, Nevada, United States, it serves the Las Vegas area. The station is currently owned by Las Vegas Broadcasters and features programming from SRN News.[2]
The station began broadcasting in May 1990 and primarily focused on airing brokered Christian talk and teaching programs with music.[3] By 1994, about six hours of each day's 14 hours of broadcasting was locally produced.[4]
