KLEN (106.3 FM) is a radio station broadcasting a top 40 format. Licensed to Cheyenne, Wyoming, United States, the station serves the Cheyenne area. The station is currently owned by Townsquare Media.[2] It broadcasts a Top 40/CHR (Contemporary Hit Radio) format under the branding "106.3 Now FM".[3][4]

History

The KLEN-FM call sign was originally used on the 100.7 MHz frequency, now used by KOLT-FM. That facility signed on in 1979 as KLEN-FM before changing its call sign to KKAZ in 1980.[5]

In the 2010s, the station ran a Country music format, branded as "106.3 Cowboy Country". In the Spring 2020 Nielsen Audio ratings, KLEN-FM held a 2.4 market share, often competing directly with iHeartMedia's country stations in the market.

On January 15, 2021, KLEN began simulcasting sister station KCGY, with a new format expected to debut on KLEN, once the simulcast ended.[6]

On February 1, 2021, KLEN dropped the simulcast with KCGY and switched to its current format.
