MESSAGE TO ALL OF OUR FRIENDS FROM OUR STATION MANAGER

As a community radio station, we are very proud of the dynamically informative programming which we have on KNSJ. We are even prouder of our listeners, producers, volunteers and community donor supporters who are at the heart of our mission to transform the social, cultural and political dialogue in the border region. We depend on you for 90% of our funding through memberships and donations. Please renew your monthly contribution at this critical moment.

Improving our Radio Viability

KNSJ’s mission is to inform the diverse communities of San Diego with challenging content.  As the last full power station, licensed by the FCC, we have struggled to improve our signal, frustrated by increasingly harsh winter weather, and by mistreatment on the radio tower, which we rent. We are presently streaming at KNSJ.org 24/7 but our presently we are off the Broadcast airwaves. Our expectation is that we will be back on the air this month. Stay tuned!

We have an application with the FCC to relocate our antenna closer to San Diego. This application depends on approval by Mexico and has been held up for a very long time. If approved, we expect that our terrestrial signal will be much improved! We are eager to serve you better on terrestrial signal, and the important streaming through your smart speaker or smart phone as well as the content that we are putting onto social media that especially reaches young people.

Information is Critical for Elections!

Never has there been a greater need for accurate, trustworthy and insightful information. The very fiber of our society and the essence of our democracy is being challenged and we at KNSJ believe that our content is essential for democratic dialogue.

Please consider being a part of KNSJ as we are always eager to do outreach into the community as we recently did at the Kale Fest as well as two days at the Adams Avenue Street fair.

We need help producing new shows and dozens of other Volunteer opportunities to get our groundbreaking programming deeper into the community. Democracy depends on the free flow of information and also depends on you for the power to make that happen.

–Martin Eder, General Manager, KNSJ
