KYYS (1250 AM) is a commercial radio station broadcasting a Regional Mexican format. It is licensed to Kansas City, Kansas. While it is owned by Audacy, Inc., the operations are under a local marketing agreement (LMA) with Reyes Media Group.

By day, KYYS is powered at 25,000 watts. But to protect other stations from interference on 1250 AM, it uses a directional antenna with a three-tower array at all times. Power is reduced to 3,700 watts at night.
