About KUCB FM 89.7
KUCB FM 89.7 streams live from Unalaska AK, United States, on Tuninga Radio.
This radio station offers diverse programming.
A non-commercial radio station located in Unalaska, Alaska, broadcasting on 89.7 FM. The station signed on in October 2008 as a successor to KIAL 1450 AM, which had previously been owned by the municipality of Unalaska. Following municipal budget cuts, the operation transitioned to an independent nonprofit structure reliant primarily on individual donors. The move from the AM dial to FM also allowed for a stronger signal than the original 50-watt AM transmitter. Programming draws from National Public Radio, Native Voice One, and Alaska Public Radio, alongside locally produced content. News coverage focuses on industries and issues central to the Unalaska and Dutch Harbor area, including commercial fishing, Bering Sea fisheries management, and community development. Reporting on salmon bycatch regulations, subsistence fishing rights, and local infrastructure reflects the station's role as a primary news source for one of Alaska's most geographically remote communities. In addition to radio, the station operates KUCB-LD, a low-power television station on channel 8 in Dutch Harbor, which airs community bulletin board content and limited locally produced programming.
