It's not just radio, it's Community Radio!

    People powered, volunteer driven, community radio is a valuable resource here in the north state. 

    Every day, you tune in for inspiring music and coverage of important topics on our independent, locally produced programming.

    Thanks to your support, our excellently curated music programs like Celt Radio, Devastation Sounds, Island Rhythms, One World Music, and Random Pick keep you entertained throughout the week. 

    Again thanks to your support, our locally produced news & public affairs programs like Peace & Social Justice, Ecotopia, The Real Issue, and the North State Water Report keep you informed of issues that impact the North State.

    Your support during the upcoming fall pledge drive will ensure local residents, like you and me, have a platform to share our views and talents. 

    Stay tuned Wed, Oct 23rd - Friday Nov 1st for all the details on special fall 2024 pledge drive shows, new thank you gifts and more.
