KOBB-FM (93.7 FM) is a radio station licensed to serve Bozeman, Montana, United States. The station is owned by Reier Broadcasting Company, which operates as the KBOZ Radio Stations Group.[4]

The offices and all the studios are located southwest of Bozeman at "Radio Ranch", 5445 Johnson Road. KOBB-FM shares a transmitter site with KBOZ (AM) and KBOZ-FM, east of the studios on Johnson Road and Fowler Lane. KBOZ-FM, KOZB, and KOBB-FM all have CPs to move to a new shared transmitter site on top of Green Mountain, along I-90 east of Bozeman.

KOBB-FM airs an oldies music format.[5] The station derives most of its programming from Scott Shannon's The True Oldies Channel.[6] As of July 2009, KOBB-FM was the only station in Montana to carry The True Oldies Channel.

The station was assigned the KOBB-FM call letters by the Federal Communications Commission on April 11, 1997.[3] Before oldies the station carried a country music format as "The Kat".

On June 3, 2018, KOBB-FM and its sister stations went off the air.[7][8]
