KUNC Improves Summit County Signal Coverage

 

Beginning today, Summit County listeners who are used to hearing KUNC at 88.3 FM will need to tune in a bit lower on the dial to hear the station’s blend of NPR and regional news and music. KUNC can now be heard at 88.1 FM as part of an upgrade to the station’s service throughout Summit County.

 

“The mountain terrain provides challenges to FM reception,” according to Neil Best, President and CEO of KUNC. “KUNC is investing additional resources to provide better coverage throughout Summit County.”

 

Earlier this year, KUNC purchased KMPB, and began broadcasting at 88.7 FM, providing a quality signal to southern Summit County, including Breckenridge.

 

KUNC has been serving Summit County for more than 20 years through a partnership with Summit Public Radio and TV. With the new station and relocated translator, Best says “We’re excited to have the opportunity to expand our service in one of the mountain communities of Colorado, and will continue work to enhance reception in the area.” Best invites listeners’ feedback at comment@kunc.org.

KUNC serves listeners along the Front Range at 91.5 FM, 102.7 in Boulder, and 91.7 in Golden and the west metro area, along with a network of stations and translators around the state including Breckenridge, Buena Vista, Grand County, Haxtun/Holyoke, Julesburg/Ovid, Leadville, Morgan County, North Park, Salida, Steamboat Springs Sterling, Vail/Minturn & Eagle Valley, Wray, and Yuma.
