History of Public Radio in Phoenix - It All Started at Ñî¹óåú´«Ã½ÊÓƵ

From a radio student club at Ñî¹óåú´«Ã½ÊÓƵ in the early 1930s, Ñî¹óåú´«Ã½ÊÓƵ added broadcast radio to its curriculum in 1936. In 1951, a new radio station hit the Phoenix airwaves, operating at just 10 watts. KFCA’s signal reached a radius of just a few miles around Ñî¹óåú´«Ã½ÊÓƵ near 15th Avenue and Thomas Road, where the station was based in Ñî¹óåú´«Ã½ÊÓƵ’s physics department.
