KXXO (96.1 FM, "X96.1") is a radio station licensed to Olympia, Washington. Owned by 3 Cities, Inc. and operated by Bustos Media under a transitional local marketing agreement, it broadcasts a Latin pop and adult contemporary format serving the South Puget Sound region of Washington

In August 2025, 3 Cities, Inc. announced that it would sell the station to Bustos Media for $1.5 million. [2]

On October 27, 2025, Bustos Media took over operations of the station, and flipped it from an English-language hot AC format to a predominantly-Spanish language format branded as X96.1; the new format features a mix of Latin pop and English-language adult contemporary music. [3]
