KEMR (1080 AM) is a radio station licensed to serve Moriarty, New Mexico, United States. It is owned by the Isleta Radio Company.

The station was assigned the KQNM call sign by the Federal Communications Commission on May 18, 2009.[1] On September 22, 2015, the KQNM call letters were moved to 1550 in Albuquerque with 1090 picking up the KRKE callsign previously held by that station. On November 1, 2017, the KRKE call letters were transferred to 101.3 in Albuquerque with 1090 picking up the KSFE call sign.[3]

According to the FCC database, the station has filed an application to move from 1090 kHz to 1080 kHz and move the station from Milan, New Mexico to Moriarty, New Mexico. The FCC granted a construction permit on September 20, 2017.[4] It was granted a license to cover the new location on June 15, 2021.[5]

The station changed its call sign to KMYN on March 7, 2019, then again to KEMR on April 9, 2019.

On January 3, 2022, the station filed a silent notification stating that the station would be off the air while the FM translator K271DC would be moved from the AM broadcasting tower to a new site.[6]
