KSAL (1150 kHz "NewsRadio 1150") is a commercial AM radio station that broadcasts a news-talk radio format. Licensed to Salina, Kansas, it serves the Salina-Manhattan area. The station is owned by Christopher Miller, through licensee Meridian Media, LLC.

KSAL is powered at 5,000 watts. By day it uses a non-directional antenna. To protect other stations on 1150 AM from interference, at night it switches to a directional antenna with a four-tower array. The transmitter is on North Woodward Road in New Cambria.[2] Programming is also heard on 250 watt FM translator K294DI at 106.7 MHz in Salina.

On weekdays, KSAL begins with The KSAL Morning News. Before sunrise, it also carries two news magazines, This Morning, America's First News with Gordon Deal and America in the Morning. There are also local talk and sports shows in the late afternoon and evening. The rest of the schedule is nationally syndicated conservative talk programs: Brian Kilmeade, The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, The Ramsey Show with Dave Ramsey, Ground Zero with Clyde Lewis and Coast to Coast AM with George Noory. Weekends feature some repeats of weekday shows, as well as Kim Komando "Somewhere in Time with Art Bell" and sports programming from SportsMap. Most hours begin with world and national news from Fox News Radio.
