KCFI (1250 AM) is a commercial radio station licensed to serve the Cedar Falls, Iowa, area. The station primarily broadcasts an oldies format but airs Minnesota Twins baseball and some sports overflow from sister station KCNZ. KCFI is licensed to James Coloff's Coloff Media, LLC. It was first licensed on July 13, 1960.

During daylight hours, KCFI uses two towers in a directional array that concentrates the broadcast signal southeast toward Cedar Rapids, Iowa. At night, three towers are used to create a three lobe pattern that slightly favors the south and west.
