Our translator station serving St. Francis and Cheyenne County at 96.3 FM is off the air due to an air conditioning breakdown at its leased transmitter site, making it too hot for HPPR's equipment to operate. We are currently working to fix the situation. We apologize for the loss of service and ask listeners to tune to KZNK at 90.1 FM or listen on line through the player above or HPPR's mobile app.

While most people believe that the city life can bring many opportunities for jobs and a higher lifestyle, Dr. Bonney MacDonald believes that one can settle anywhere and still have open opportunities. The Texas Panhandle gave her the chance to put forth and distribute the knowledge and skills she’s obtained into her students and colleagues while continuing to expand her horizons to this day.
