KUOL (94.5 MHz, "Kool 94.5 FM") is an FM radio station licensed to serve Elko, Nevada, United States. The station is owned by Brian D. Shapiro, Chapter 7 Trustee for Global One Media, Inc. It airs a classic hits format.[2] For much of November and December, it switches to all-Christmas music.

The station was assigned the KOYT call sign by the Federal Communications Commission on September 1, 2005, and changed to KZBI on August 1, 2010.[3]

On September 1, 2020, KZBI changed its call sign to KUOL. On September 10, 2020, the station flipped to classic hits as "94.5 Kool-FM", as part of a format swap between KUOL and K299AN/KUOL-HD2, which now airs KUOL's former news/talk format as "Talk Radio 107.7".[4]
