KRZA UPDATES
February 25th, 2019 -In Fall 2018 our main transmitter on San Antonio Mountain went down due to many broken parts. It was installed in 2002, which means it is 17 years old. The shelf life of a transmitter is about 10-12 years. We were very lucky to get by the past few years but our luck has finally run out. Now it is time to replace the entire machine with a new model. Thanks to your generous support in the Fall we were able to put a down payment on the new equipment as well as set up a low-power back up transmitter for future outages. The total cost for this project will be $42,000 and we have already put down $14,000 to get started. Now we need your help more than ever to finish this project and guarantee the longevity of KRZA for at least another decade. We have already started the project and would really like to be finished by our Spring Fund Drive, which is set to begin on April 6, 2019. We will have to work against the snow as well as continue raising funds to pay for the installation and parts. That is why your donation is vital right now!
Help today by sending an early bird donation and become one of the supporters that gets us back on the air at full power. Together we can make it all happen!
If you have any further questions please feel free to call the station and speak with the General Manager at 719-589-8844 or email gm@krza.org.
