KFMW, known as "Rock 108", is a radio station based in Waterloo, Iowa. The station has an active rock format. Its signal is transmitted from the AFLAC Tower north of Rowley, Iowa.

KFMW came on the air in 1968 and was originally owned by Black Hawk Broadcasting Company of Waterloo. It was one of two radio stations owned by Black Hawk Broadcasting's NBC affiliate, KWWL-TV, and for approximately 10 years, KFMW programmed an instrumental music format of what was called "beautiful music" by some and "elevator music" by most. It ran this format until the early 1980s when it was flipped to a contemporary hit radio format. It remained a CHR format until approximately 1992 when it was given its current name, "Rock 108." The station was essentially a classic rock station for a few years, morphed into an alternative rock format for a time in the mid-1990s, and eventually began an active rock stance in the late 1990s which it remains today.

The station was sold by Black Hawk Broadcasting to Forward Broadcasting in the early 1980s, sold to Park Broadcasting in the late 1980s, and then sold to its current owner, Bahakel Communications based in Charlotte, North Carolina, in 1996.

KFMW-FM is the #1 ranked rock station in eastern Iowa, serving the Waterloo/Cedar Falls metropolitan area as well as the Cedar Rapids metropolitan area.

Rock 108 shares the same nickname and frequency as Rock 108 in Valdosta, Georgia.
