Public radio is a vital avenue of information in remote areas such as the Arizona Strip.
NAU and KNAU are proud to have this opportunity to be of service to Arizonans who do not have another local media source. Coconino County and the Town of Fredonia are providing local matching funds for the project. KNAU General Manager John Stark said the station has long sought to extend service to the Arizona Strip. Arizona Strip residents have long been isolated and cutoff from the rest of Arizona. The new station will repeat KNAU's NPR News and classical music programming that originates in Flagstaff.
