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.

Howdy Folks!

This note is going to be short. My wife and I are on vacation in the Galveston Bay. We're staying in a canal house, and fishing off the deck. I've also been going out at night gigging flouder with one of my friends. We've also been taking care of the crab traps. Take a look at the slide show, and you'll see the amazing stone crabs we brought home.

It's a great time to be outdoors!
