KNWH (1250 AM) is a commercial radio station licensed to Yucca Valley, California. It simulcasts a talk radio format with sister stations 970 KNWZ and 1160 KNWQ. It is owned by Alpha Media.[2] The studios are on North Gene Autry Trail (California State Route 111) in Palm Springs.

By day, KNWH is powered at 800 watts non-directional. But to avoid interference to other stations on 1250 AM, KNWH must reduce power at night to 77 watts.[3] Programming is also heard on several FM translators in the Coachella Valley.
