KTSM (690 AM) is a commercial radio station licensed to El Paso, Texas. It is owned by iHeartMedia, Inc. and airs a talk format. The studios are on North Mesa Street at West Waymore Drive in west central El Paso.

KTSM broadcasts with 10,000 watts around the clock. Because the station operates on 690 AM, a Mexican and Canadian clear-channel frequency, KTSM uses a directional antenna with a four-tower array to avoid interfering with other stations operating on the same frequency. Its transmitter site is located off O'Brian Street near U.S. Route 54 in north east El Paso.
