KXST (1140 AM) was a commercial radio station licensed to North Las Vegas, Nevada, and broadcasting to the Las Vegas metropolitan area. The station was owned by Audacy, Inc., but is currently silent.

KXST's transmitter is near Nellis Air Force Base and Interstate 15, on East Tropical Parkway; the sale of the site is a factor in the station's current silence. It was powered at 10,000 watts by day, using a non-directional antenna. Because AM 1140 is a clear channel frequency reserved for XEMR in Monterrey, Mexico, and WRVA in Richmond, Virginia, KXST reduced its power to 2,500 watts and used a directional antenna at night.
