Auntie's Radio Show
 

I've heard that Auntie, our wonderful Kauai resource, has a radio show. When is it broadcast -- and on what station?

I'll be there in four more days!

Auntie Maria is on KKCR 7-9 am Wed and Fri 91.9 on Kauai and 104.7 on Oahu.

Thanks. Does anyone know where that is on the dial in Kauai?

KKCR is a rural community radio station -- volunteer-operated and listener-supported (no commercials!). Each of us who are on-air, have autonomy when it comes to what songs we play (as long as we stay within the prescribed format). From midnight to 7am every day, the music is auto-supplied by our computerized Hawaiian music library. Weekdays 7am to 11am you'll get real, live programmers spinning the tunes, giving local surf & weather reports, and the daily community events calendar.

KKCR offers a widely diverse selection of music, plus talk shows. We do our best to represent the multi-cultural community of this beautiful island.

KKCR is at 3 spots on the radio dial, due to our only being able to hoist up smallish transmission equipment:
90.9 northshore
92.7 Moloa`a and Anahola
91.9 everywhere else on Kaua`i & Ni`ihau
104.7 north & west side of O`ahu

We also broadcast online, 24/7:

I'm on-air Wednesday & Friday 7-9am (HST), and occasionally fill in for other morning programmers too. My focus is "anything Hawaiian, but no reggae!" 8-) From old to new...including my tracks from my extensive collection of Hawaiian vinyl albums.

Got a song or musician you want to hear? Email your requests. Questions about Hawaiian music or musicians? Drop me a line anytime.

Excellent! We're streaming KKCR while we puruse the Hawaii forum; be even more fun it it were Auntie's hour.

Yeah, a soundtrack for our travel planning!

Thanks so much for the info. I'll look forward to listening Friday morning!

We'll be there Saturday! We'll be sure to give it a listen.

Auntie: I enjoy listening to KKCR when on Kauai, and via the internet.

We were on Kauai in May, and I wanted to stop by the station and get a T-Shirt. We thought it was kind of behind the Hanalei police station, but the officer we asked acted like he had never heard of the KKCR station! I take it that visitors may not be appropriate? We also asked a KKCR volunteer who also volunteers at the Kilauea Lighthouse, but she seemed to discourage visitors as well. Just curious...

Other Fodorites might be interested to know that T-shirts are available via the KKCr website (where I got mine!), as well as KKCR-via-internet.

T-shirt?

auntie? May I have one? Pretty please with lilkoi sauce on top? I'll buy you and Bob a big ole honking mai-tai...

5 more days!

suck up!!

I'2 honey? This is for you: :&:&:&

bbq, you're a :& wad!!!!!!!

Forget about the tee shirt....auntie has probably even forgotten you!!!!

((r))***i'2***

Hmmm...the word BITTER comes to mind just about now.

Thanks for reminding me. I need to call auntie to see if she's up for a GTG next week! Wanna come?

Billlllllllllllly -- yes, call when you're settled in so we can all get together!

As for KKCR t-shirts, I'll see if we have anymore remaining from the station's last pledge drive, and will cheerfully sell you as many as you need. Buy them as gifts for all the folks on that long shopping list of yours! :-D

As for visiting KKCR, appointments are required (staff members give the full 5-cent tour): 826-7774 And we'll give you easy directions to find the station.

See you next week, BillyBoy! 8-)

Good grief.....I think I'm going to :& again!!!!!!!!!!

Well...I know one person who is not going to get a t-shirt!

See you next week...auntie!

e-mail me your phone number please.

1-800-EAT-POOP for you!!!!!!!!

Round two of Fodorote Fued Practice Session. The Dawg team is getting stronger. Clatchers are going down!

Looks like instead of visiting my rescue boys at Princeville Fire Station next time it will have to be my fave radio station instead to supply up on the hippest tshirt gifts on the island.

Oh hell, I'll still visit those darling rescue/firefighters anyway!!!!!!!!!!!

Kealalani,
I'll bring YOU back a t-shirt because you are always sweet and nice to me unlike someone else. 8-)

I'm feeling sick again...:&
