Khbc
I think they're currently broadcasting only on FM.

I think they are trying to get the call letters KIPA for the AM side. Read about that somewhere but I can't remember where now.I'm still here. Are you?

Re: Khbc
Thank you! A Big Island friend gave me a history of the station but not including it going off the air. Colorful...seems investors bought KIPA with a contract with the former owner to manage it, but reneged on the management part, so he bought KAHU (which I always liked for their great Hawaiian music) and moved Mynah Bird over, burying KIPA, which did disappear from some charts at various times. It was nice to resurrect the original KHBC call letters, I hope they return on AM.
