It’s hard to believe, but Bart Mihailovich and I have been doing our weekly KYRS radio show for almost two years. It’s been a wonderful experience, and we look forward to many more years to come! As I’m sure you’ve heard, our Fall On-Air Fund Drive will begin this Thursday on October 6th and run through Wednesday October 12th. This could be the most important fund drive we’ll ever be a part of since the 4-piece antenna is up, the studio-to-transmitter link dish is up, and the refrigerator-sized transmitter is in. KYRS is nearly there but we still need your help to make it all happen. We need to raise $ 25,000. Luptio Flores said the station has raised almost 75% of the $ 100,000 needed to get the new full power station up and running on 88.1FM.

Your support allows great community radio to continue to thrive, and everyone benefits from the in-depth public affairs programming and diverse musical talents aired everyday on KYRS. This boost will make KYRS go from from 100 watts to 6,5000 watts and double our coverage area. We are a volunteer-powered, non-commercial, listener-supported, community radio station. We depend on people like you to keep the station going strong.
