KNNR (1400 AM) is a commercial radio station based in Reno, Nevada. It is owned and operated by Donald Brown and Cynthia Green, through licensee Silver State Broadcasting LLC. It broadcasts a Spanish AC format.

History

Logo as a Regional Mexican station (2013–2017)

KBDB came to air in 2000 and eventually broadcast a smooth jazz format. After two months off the air, KBDB became KNNR in 2012 with taped city hearings and for a time, The Savage Nation, which was moved back to KKOH and later discontinued.

In September 2013, the station began airing Regional Mexican programming via MVS Radio's La Mejor network. At the start of 2017, it switched to a full-time simulcast of sister station KELY, which airs on three other stations in Northern Nevada. They are collectively branded as the "Nevada Talk Network."

KNNR (alongside former satellite partner KELY) was the local Reno radio partner for the Vegas Golden Knights of the National Hockey League.[2]

As of November 2022, KNNR broadcasts a Spanish AC format under the branding "Radio Xtasis".
