KKSM is Palomar College’s award-winning campus radio station. We are a 500 watt station that broadcasts 24 hours a day, 365 days a year from the Jonathan Downey Memorial Studio on the campus of Palomar College in San Marcos, California. You can hear us at AM1320 on the radio dial throughout most of San Diego County and Southern Orange County and simulcasting worldwide on the web!
As San Diego’s only freeform and independent radio station, we offer all forms of programming and music ranging from punk to hip hop, from heavy metal to blues, plus news and sports talk. As a community college station, we are free from corporate interests which allows for freedom to play what we want and to spotlight local, independent, and unsigned artists.
KKSM 1320 AM is a student-operated station with students filling the positions of show hosts, newscasters, reporters, and sportscasters. Students also learn management skills as they become the station’s Program Director, Music Director, Production Manager, Promotion Director, PSA Director, and News Director
KKSM broadcasts on AM 1320 from Oceanside, CA. You should be able to pick up our signal from San Juan Capistrano in the North to La Jolla in the South and from the coastline in the West to the I-15 in the East.
