KWWN (1100 AM) is a commercial radio station licensed to Las Vegas, Nevada, and airing a sports radio format. It is owned by Lotus Communications with studios on West Flamingo Road in Spring Valley while using a Las Vegas address. KWWN carries a mix of local sports shows and ESPN Radio hosts. Live sports heard on KWWN include the UNLV Rebels football and men's basketball teams along with the Las Vegas Aces of the WNBA and the Los Angeles Lakers of the NBA.
By day, KWWN is powered at 22,000 watts. But at night, to protect other stations on 1100 AM, a clear channel frequency, KWWN reduces power to 2,000 watts and uses a directional antenna with a four-tower array. The transmitter is off North Martin Luther King Boulevard near West Brooks Avenue in North Las Vegas.[2] Programming is also heard on 35-watt FM translator K265EZ at 100.9 MHz in Henderson.[3]
