KNAU News/Talk is now broadcasting via Low Power on 88.7 FM in the Flagstaff city limits; signal strength will vary.



Crews are attempting a generator fix to restore full power to KNAU Classical 88.7 atop Mormon Mountain. Outage times for our KNAU News/Talk transmitter atop Devil's Head on Mt. Elden remain dependent on APS restoration of power to that location. We'll provide updates when available. Streaming is not impacted. Thank you for your patience & support!

APS has cut power to both transmitter sites for KNAU Classical and KPUB News/Talk "...for safety due to extreme fire risk... [in] high fire-risk communities in the Flagstaff area." We have no estimated time for restoration at the moment. Streaming is not impacted. Thank you for your patience & support!

Arizona Public Radio continues to integrate new audio software while addressing remaining glitches. We appreciate your patience and support and will update when all issues are fully resolved.
