KBET (790 kHz "103.1 The Hu$tle") is a commercial AM radio station licensed to Winchester, Nevada and broadcasting to the Las Vegas Valley. It is owned and by Silver State Broadcasting LLC and operated by Autopilot FM and is currently broadcasting an urban contemporary format. Its studios are in the unincorporated Clark County community of Enterprise.

KBET broadcasts with 1,000 watts by day, reducing power to 300 watts at night to avoid interfering with other stations on 790 AM. The transmitter is off Telephone Pole Road in Whitney, Nevada.[2] KBET is also heard on FM translator 103.1 MHz K276GX in Las Vegas.[3]

KBET recently carried nationally syndicated conservative talk shows most of the day, mainly from Cumulus Media subsidiary Westwood One. They included Chris Plante, Dan Bongino and "Red Eye Radio." In addition, "Armstrong & Getty" from KSTE Sacramento was heard in morning drive time. Alex Jones from the Genesis Communications Network aired early weekday and weekend mornings and Ground Zero with Clyde Lewis was heard in late evenings. Most hours began with Fox News Radio.
