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.

KZAN-FM 91.7, providing HPPR service to Hays, KS and the surrounding area, is off the air due to failure of the satellite receiver used to connect the station with HPPR's studios.  A spare receiver has been sent and engineers are working on replacing the failed receiver and returning KZAN-FM 91.7 to full service as soon as possible.

We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.
