KJIM (1500 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station in Sherman, Texas. The station is owned by Bob Mark Allen Productions.[2] KJIM airs a primary adult standards radio format featuring programming from America's Best Music, a service of Westwood One, and also airs secondary classic hits and soft adult contemporary formats. World and national news is heard every hour from CBS Radio News as well as a broadcast cycle of NOAA Weather Radio station WXK22. KJIM's studios, offices, and the transmitter are on Woodlawn Road in Denison, Texas.[3]

Because AM 1500 is a clear-channel frequency reserved for WFED in Washington, D.C., and KSTP in St. Paul, Minnesota, KJIM is a daytimer and must sign-off at sunset. Programming is heard around the clock on FM translator K267CB at 101.3 MHz.
