KPLO-FM (94.5 MHz) is a radio station licensed to serve Reliance, South Dakota. The station is owned by James River Broadcasting, branded as DRG Media Group. It airs a country music format.[2] All four Pierre DRG Media Group (James River Broadcasting) stations share studios on West Pleasant Drive in Pierre.
