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 meantime you can always stream either the HPPR mix service or HPPR connect service using the player above or the HPPR app.

Democrats are growing more and more confident day by day that they will prevail in Colorado, reports CNN.

Speaking to a gathering in Pueblo yesterday, Hillary Clinton criticized Trump's campaign for its recent negative tone.

The Clinton camp informed The Wall Street Journal that Republicans are using a “scorched-earth” strategy to depress Democratic turnout next month.

“This just shows how desperate they are, that is all they have left, pure negativity, pessimism,” Clinton said. To reinforce their confidence, Democrats pointed to polls showing the former secretary of state up double digits in the Centennial State. Regarding the GOP’s recent struggles, Clinton remarked: “They've had a bad couple weeks.”
