KSME (96.1 FM) is a commercial radio station licensed to Greeley, Colorado. It is owned by iHeartMedia and it broadcasts a top 40 (CHR) format. The station's studio is located in Loveland at Crossroads Blvd. and I-25.
The station broadcasts using HD Radio technology, offering an HD2 subchannel that features an adult alternative format. This subchannel is also relayed on a low-power FM translator, K235BT, at 94.9 FM, which is branded as "Radio 94.9." This HD Radio simulcast moved to KSME from its sister station KPAW in December 2017 as part of a larger station realignment by iHeartMedia in the Colorado area. The current KSME call sign itself is a phonetic play on its branding, suggesting "Kiss Me."
