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.

The ballots for Texas’s primary contests have been set, reports The Texas Tribune.In many cases, the primary races are expected to be more competitive than November’s general election races. You can go here to find a list of all candidates in all races.

You’ll see familiar names here, such as presidential contenders like Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. But you’ll also see some names in the presidential race that are probably unfamiliar. These include Republican Elizabeth Gray and Libertarian Star Locke, who is listed as a Democrat.

In the Texas panhandle’s congressional district, Congressman Mac Thornberry is running unopposed on both sides of the aisle.

Other important races include those for Texas Railroad Commissioner and Texas Supreme Court, and Texas Senate and House.
