KBGA's Radiothon is February 8th-14th. From 8am to 8pm any day during this week, you can call in and pledge your support for college radio. Here are a few facts about the station so you know what you're supporting:


  • KBGA is a student run operation, which means a group of young UM radio enthusiasts manage everything  that keeps the station running on a daily basis. This includes audio production, marketing, scheduling, training others in the craft of broadcast, web management, budgeting significant operating costs, booking and promoting events (both local and national acts such as Vampire Weekend), and everything else that goes into keeping a community station on the air 365 days a year.
  • While the staff is entirely made up of students, our 120+ DJs are volunteers from just about every age group, profession, and musical preference. Some of our DJs are professors, retired community members, moms and dads, former students, and a whole lot of good 'ol music nerds.
  • We have made a number of huge improvements to the station in the past year. For starters, we turned our stream on in the summer and totally redesigned our broadcast studio with all new equipment courtesy of a generous grant from The Greater Montana Foundation.
  • We're dedicated to quality news programming. We air Democracy Now every weekday at 11am and have the Thom Hartmann show on 4 days a week during latenight hours. Journalism students also provide an impressive amount of local programming with a newscast every day at 9 and 5. Out Tuesday night Talk Block features 2 hours of student news with Sports talk and the brand new Talking Heads news program broadcast live on location in the Journalism building.
