KSSK-FM (92.3 MHz) is an FM radio station licensed to Waipahu, Hawaii, and serving the Honolulu media market. It is simulcast on AM 590 kHz KSSK, which is licensed to Honolulu. KSSK-AM-FM are owned by iHeartMedia, Inc. and the stations air an adult contemporary radio format.

The stations are home to the popular "Perry & the Posse" morning show. They are also heard on Oceanic Time Warner Cable digital channel 867 for the entire state of Hawaii, via the DishHD satellite TV service in Taiwan, and also USEN's Sound Planet satellite radio service in Japan.

The stations use the slogan, "Hawaii's Favorite." Arbitron consistently ranks KSSK-AM-FM as Honolulu's most listened-to radio station. Like other iHeartMedia adult contemporary stations in many markets, KSSK-AM-FM play all holiday music in the month leading up to Christmas, returning to its normal format on December 26. KSSK's jingle melody was adapted from that of WPLJ in New York City. KSSK-AM-FM used WPLJ's jingle packages until TM Century created a jingle package for KSSK, entitled "Big Time Honolulu."

The AM side of the stations first signed on the air on Friday, May 11, 1922 as KDYX. The governor of Hawaii was the first to greet the audiences. Along with KDYX, rival AM station KGU signed on the same day. KSSK's rise to the top in the Honolulu market started when the station's call letters were KGMB.
