KJJP-FM 105.7 is currently operating at 15% of power, limiting its signal strength and range in the Amarillo-Canyon area. This due to complicated problems with its very old transmitter. Local engineers are continuing to work on the transmitter and are 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.

Good morning. I'm Leila Fadel.

MGM turns a hundred years old today. To celebrate, the Hollywood Heritage Museum in Los Angeles has put on an exhibit showcasing the studio's history. Highlights include personal items and costumes worn by Golden Age stars, including Humphrey Bogart, Mae West, Clark Gable, Marion Davies as well as an outfit Judy Garland wore in 1944's "Meet Me In St. Louis." The exhibit runs through June.
