KMLB (540 AM) is a commercial radio station broadcasting a talk radio format. Licensed to Monroe, Louisiana, the station is owned by Holladay Broadcasting. Studios are located in Monroe.
The station's transmitter site is a single-tower non-directional antenna in nearby West Monroe, Louisiana. KMLB operates with 4,000 watts by day, covering parts of Louisiana, Arkansas and Mississippi. But because AM 540 is a clear-channel frequency reserved for Canada and Mexico, the station must greatly reduce power at night to 26 watts.
KMLB's programming is simulcast on FM translator K289CG at 105.7 MHz.
