KOOP Radio 91.7 FM
AUSTIN'S COMMUNITY RADIO SINCE 1994
STAND BY AND STREAM!
You may have noticed 91.7 isn’t coming in as clearly as it usually does. Here’s the deal:
We’re dealing with a transmitter issue, and we’re installing a temporary fix to keep KOOP on the air. That work will take place on March 31, and the FM signal will be briefly interrupted while it’s installed.
When we return, we’ll be broadcasting at reduced power. Depending on where you are, the signal may be weaker than usual, and HD radio will be unavailable for now.
We’ve sent key equipment out for repair, and we’re working to get everything fully restored as quickly as we can, but in the meantime, you can always stream KOOP by hitting the LISTEN button at the top right of this page!
We’re still here. Just a little quieter on the dial for the moment.
