KXSS-FM (96.9 FM, "96.9 KISS-FM") is a Top 40 (CHR) formatted radio station serving the Amarillo, Texas, market. KXSS-FM is owned by Gap Broadcasting. [cite web |title=Gap Broadcasting of Amarillo |url=http://www.gapbroadcasting.com/stations.php?market=Amarillo |accessdate=2008-02-01]

The station primarily competes with Cumulus Media's KQIZ in the Top 40 format. Coincidentally, both stations transmit from the same tower site [cite web |title=KQIZ Radio-Locator |url=http://www.radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/info?call=KQIZ&service=FM |accessdate=2008-02-01] , which is highly unusual.

The 96.9 frequency was, until 2008, home to a country music format as "96.9 KMML," under the ownership of Clear Channel Communications, however it was one of close to 450 radio stations sold by Clear Channel in the process of privatization, beginning in 2007. [cite web |title=Wikipedia Article on Clear Channel Communications |url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clear_Channel_Communications#Clear_Channel_Sale |accessdate=2008-02-01] KXSS, along with its sister stations KPRF-FM, KATP-FM, KMXJ-FM, and KIXZ-AM, was acquired along with approximately fifty other stations for a total price of $139M. [cite web |title=Stations Close Sale 10/05/07 |url=http://www.amarillo.com/stories/100507/bus_86232821.shtml |accessdate=2008-02-01]

The KMML call sign has been reissued to a radio station in Cimarron, Kansas. [cite web |url=http://www.radio-locator.com/cgi-bin/finder?sr=Y&s=C&call=KMML |work=Radio-Locator |title=KMML-FM: Radio Station Information Page]
