KDMR operates with 5000 watts by day. Because AM 1190 is a clear-channel frequency reserved for Class A stations KEX in Portland, Oregon, KDMR must reduce power at night to 500 watts to avoid interference. Programming is simulcast on FM translator station K237GQ in Kansas City, Kansas, at 95.3 MHz.
