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.

Texas Ag Commissioner Joins Trump's Agriculture Team

Texas’s agriculture commissioner says he has joined Donald Trump’s ag team, reports The Texas Tribune.

Sid Miller announced last week that he is working with the GOP’s presidential nominee to help craft agricultural policy. Miller said Trump is forming a “coalition” of others in the agriculture industry. The commissioner also said he will serve as a national co-chair, focused on the Texas region. Miller added, “Personally I think Donald Trump will be great for agriculture.”

Miller was noncommittal when asked if he would consider serving in a Trump administration, though he admitted it wasn’t out of the question. He says he currently has the best job in the state of Texas. The Trump campaign did not respond to the Tribune’s request for a comment.
