KXKS (1190 kHz) is an AM radio station currently broadcasting a conservative talk radio format. Licensed to Albuquerque, New Mexico, the station is currently owned by Wild West Radio Corporation.

The station was briefly operated by Rock of Talk LLC, owners of KIVA 1600 via a local marketing agreement.[2] The full-time sports outlet from Fox Sports Radio on KXKS allowed for KIVA to focus more on news. The local "Rock of Talk" program was featured on both stations in the afternoon.
