KJJP-FM 105.7 is currently operating at very reduced power and signal range using a back-up transmitter. This is because of complicated problems with its very old primary transmitter. Local engineers are currently working on that transmitter and consulting with the manufacturer to diagnose and fix the problems. We apologize for this disruption and service as we work as quickly as possible to restore KJPFM to full power. In the mean time you can always stream either the HPPR mix service or HPPR connect service using the player above or the HPPR app.

Rhonda's Secret Hot Chocolate

If you were unable to join friends of High Plains Public Radio for Amarillo’s Parade of Lights this month, you can enjoy a bit of the fun by making Rhonda’s secret hot chocolate mix.

HPPR board members, volunteers and staff enjoyed a studio open house against the background of music provided by Amy and Greg, then served hot chocolate during Center City’s annual parade. 

Texas Underwriting Representative, Rhonda Dittfurth arranged for donations allowing HPPR to distribute hot chocolate to more than 300 parade goers.

The “ooos” and “ahs!” were accompanied by many compliments regarding the hot chocolate, so we thought you’d enjoy the recipe.  Happy holidays from HPPR!

With a bit of persuasion, Rhonda Dittfurth gave up her secret recipe.

Rhonda’s Hot Chocolate Mix

2lbs Nestle Quik

11 oz Coffee Mate

1 Box (8qt) powdered milk

2lbs powdered sugar

1 cup cocoa

Mix it all together.  The best way to mix is in the jumbo zip-bags suitable for storing clothing!  Just put the ingredients inside, seal the bag and work it around until the contents are thoroughly mixed.  Store in an air-tight container. 

Use 1/3 mix to 2/3 hot water.
