KXNT (840 AM) is a commercial radio station licensed to North Las Vegas, Nevada. It broadcasts a talk radio format and is owned and operated by Audacy, Inc. The station's studios are in the unincorporated community of Spring Valley, while KXNT's transmitter is on U.S. Route 93 in North Las Vegas.

KXNT is a Class B clear-channel station. WHAS in Louisville is the dominant Class A station on 840 AM, so KXNT must reduce its power at night to avoid interfering with WHAS's signal. KXNT operates with 50,000 watts by day and 25,000 watts at night, using a directional antenna with a four-tower array.

KXNT is licensed to broadcast using HD radio technology, but is not currently broadcasting in HD. It is heard on an HD subchannel of co-owned KXQQ (100.5 FM). KXNT is Southern Nevada's primary entry point station for the Emergency Alert System.
