KMSR (1520 AM) is a radio station in Mayville, North Dakota, licensed to Northwood, serving the Red River Valley of eastern North Dakota and northwest Minnesota. Formerly known as "Sports Radio 1520", KMSR rebranded as "99KMSR" upon launching an FM translator in late 2020. KMSR 1520 AM is on the air in the daytime only, so it signs off at sunset, and signs on again at sunrise. Its translator, K255DG, operates 24 hours a day on 98.9 FM.

Programming

KMSR airs The Dan Patrick Show, The Herd with Colin Cowherd, and The Rich Eisen Show, occasionally preempted by local sports coverage. KMSR covers the Red River Valley area, including Mayville, Grand Forks, and Fargo. Simulcast for many years, KMAV-FM and KMSR (formerly KMAV) have been broadcasting separate programming since November 2003.
