KOOP Radio 91.7 FM
AUSTIN'S COMMUNITY RADIO SINCE 1994
You Are Part of the Signal! Thank You!
For ten days, we asked you to Be Part of the Signal. And you answered with incredible generosity.
Together, we not only met our Fall Membership Drive fundraising goal, we did it with an extraordinary show of support for KOOP and the programs you love.
For almost 32 years, KOOP has been about something bigger than radio. It’s about people sharing music, stories, ideas, and voices that matter, and a community willing to listen, participate, and support one another.
That’s what Be Part of the Signal means to us. The signal isn’t just what comes from our antenna. It comes from all of us. And thanks to you, it keeps getting stronger.
