KARR (1460 AM) is a radio station in Kirkland, Washington. The station primarily plays gospel music and broadcasts to the Seattle metro area. It is a member of the Family Radio network.

Originally an AM daytimer--6am to sunset it signed on as KYAC and was an urban format in 1965. In 1983 the station was granted full-time 24 hours a day broadcast day by the FCC. The station was once KGAA, a country music station owned by Monroe Broadcasting, a Spokane-based company that also owned that city's country station, KGA. The station would be sold off in 1979 to Community Communications of Gresham, Oregon.[1] The station would change its calls to KARR in 1984, and later became a station owned by Family Radio.
