KQNA (1130 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station licensed to Prescott Valley, Arizona. It has a talk radio format and is owned by the Prescott Valley Broadcasting Co. (d/b/a Arizona's Hometown Radio Group).[3][4][5] The studios and offices are on Karicio Lane in Prescott.

By day, KQNA is powered at 1,000 watts non-directional.[6] But 1130 AM is a clear channel frequency. So to avoid interference to other stations, KQNA greatly reduces power at night to only four watts. Programming is also heard on two FM translators: 10-watt K260BL on 99.9 MHz came into service in 2009; it is aimed at downtown Prescott and broadcasts from southwest of the city. 250-watt K238CB on 95.5 broadcasts from Mingus Mountain toward Prescott Valley and Cottonwood and was acquired from Advance Ministries in 2016.
