KLPW-FM (107.3 FM) is an American radio station serving the city of Rolla, Missouri.

Originally licensed to serve Cuba, Missouri, in February 2007, the license holder applied to change the city of license to Steelville, Missouri, which was the location of KQQX, a station owned by Twenty-One Sound Communications.[1]

The FCC revoked the station's STA authority (allowing it to remain silent) on April 10, 2007.[2] The station was granted its operating license on September 12, 2007 based on the original city of license of Cuba.[3]

On August 2, 2012, the FCC granted KLPW special temporary authority to operate from a new location at a reduced height and power. On August 13, 2012, KLPW-FM returned to the air with sports, with programming from ESPN Radio.

On October 2, 2015, the station was approved to move its community of license from Cuba to Steelville, at increased power.

The station operates an all sports format and is an affiliate of ESPN Network. Local high school sports and local sports talk programs also air on the station.
