History: In 2013 the FCC opened a window for applications to operate a Low Power FM Radio Station. A group of Placitans met and found the idea interesting but challenging. Needs included a long-standing 501c3 applicant, understanding of technical requirements, money for equipment and software, a tower location for transmitter and antenna and a studio within line of sight of the antenna. Learn how an application was completed that lead to a Construction Permit in 2014. By spring 2015 they had a little money, equipment, software and a skeleton broadcast schedule. May 4, 2015 KUPR went on the air.

First 10 Years: Totally listener supported and volunteer powered, the station kept expanding. First, adding broadcasting hours, then streaming to the internet, moving into a larger space and more. Scores of volunteers, thousands of programming hours, dozens of live music events and countless hours of labor have gone into the story.

10th Anniversary!​​​ Thank you for supporting KUPR and our live music events. A great time was had with Felix y los Gatos despite the rain ... we danced away the afternoon to some great music. Right now we have nothing planned until our 5th Annual Gathering of Spirits at Placitas Winery, October 31st, but you never know. Check back often to see what's going on.
