KZOT (1180 AM) is a commercial radio station licensed to Bellevue, Nebraska, and serving the Omaha metropolitan area. The station is owned by NRG Media and the license is held by NRG License Sub, LLC. It airs a sports radio format, with programming from Infinity Sports Network. Studios are at 50th Avenue and Dodge Street in Midtown Omaha.

By day, KZOT transmits with 25,000 watts. As 1180 AM is a clear channel frequency reserved for WHAM Rochester, New York, KZOT must reduce power at night to 1,000 watts to avoid interference. It uses a directional antenna with a four-tower array. The transmitter site is on Sunnydale Road in Council Bluffs, Iowa, near Interstate 80.[3]
