KEND (106.5 FM) is a commercial radio station licensed to serve Roswell, New Mexico, United States. The station, which began broadcasting in 1990, is currently owned by the Pecos Valley Broadcasting Company.

KEND broadcasts a news and talk format featuring syndicated personalities Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, Clyde Lewis, and George Noory.

History

[edit]

KEND previously had an adult hits music format branded as "Jack FM".[2] The station also aired an active rock format as "The Mix" from 2003 to 2007. In the spring of 2015 KEND switched to news/talk, shortly after KBIM AM 910/93.7 had dropped the format for rhythmic CHR in April; most of KBIM's syndicated programming was picked up by KEND.

The station was assigned the KEND call sign by the Federal Communications Commission on January 25, 1990.[3]

The call letters KEND previously belonged to 1590 AM in Lubbock, Texas, now KDAV.
