Holy Moley! KBGA is streaming once again and this time it's crystal clear! The construction continues on our new broadcast studio, so be on the lookout for updates and pictures as we continue putting everything back together. We'd like to publicly thank our station engineer Vern Argo. You sir...are amazing. Thank you for putting in late nights and working so hard to keep us on the air during all the renovations.

Please listeners and DJs, send your email praises for Vern to radio@kbga.org and we'll pass them along to this very deserving KBGA team member.

KBGA is the latest stop on SpinningIndie's tour of 50 States of College Radio.

"We're off to Montana to check out University of Montana station KBGA. Today's actually a big day for KBGA, as they'll be hosting a big concert/fundraising event tonight in Missoula. 'KBGA's 13th Annual Birthday Bash' will feature DJs, bands, and a silent auction to benefit the station."

KBGA was also featured on the front page of the Missoulian's Montana section.

"Over its life, KBGA has been the Missoula Valley's repository for community DJing. It would be easy to walk the Missoula streets today and come across someone who's hosted his or her own show. Ready to throw its annual Birthday Bash again this Friday, the station has another impressive roster of DJs old and young, and a contact list of 105 others who could fill in any gaps. While market analysts and pundits debate the future of terrestrial broadcast radio - even whether it can survive - KBGA is staffed by a host of music lovers who believe in the inherent value of their jobs."
