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.

    Real People in Osman’s The Thursday Murder Club
    Lynne Hewes
    The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman is listed under the categories Mystery, Thriller, and Suspense. Which it is, of course, but what I love most about it is that the book is much more than that.

    My Year without Walmart
    Lynne Hewes
    For as long as I can remember, I’ve made New Year’s resolutions that I can’t keep: eat healthy foods, exercise more, forego sleazy murder mysteries and read only educational books.
  • Alfred Stevens’ Truth and Falsehood (completed in 1866) and a companion piece Valour and Cowardice were commissioned by the Duke of Welllington for his monument in St. Paul’s Cathedral. The monument was not completed until 1912, almost 40 years after the death of the sculptor.

    Examining Our ‘Truths’
    Lynne Hewes
    The first time I read Sherwood Anderson’s WINESBURG, OHIO, was when I was in college at Fort Hays working on my master’s degree. I remember the book well for two reasons: (1) It reminds me of the life in a small town that I know, and (2) I’ve been thinking lately that some of the themes in the book are appropriate for us today.
