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.

A Treasure Chest of Bibles Found in SW Kansas Church Attic

High Plains Public Radio | By Cindee Talley

The First Presbyterian Church calls Ashland, Kansas home. The rural church has seen attendance, as well as hope, rise in the past year. Why? Because of a treasure found by Minister Marsha Granberry when she was cleaning out the attic. Granberry said, in an article by Becky Tanner,for the Wichita Eagle, she was sorting through boxes and found a box of bibles in different languages. The 15 bibles are from the 1920s and 1930s, and one bible, written in Cherokee, may have been printed in the 1860s.Granberry said she hopes the bibles will be auctioned to pay for a new bathroom needed to accommodate elderly members.
