KAWC FM 88.9

KAWC FM 88.9 streams live from Yuma AZ, United States, on Tuninga Radio.

This radio station offers diverse programming.

A public radio station operating at 88.9 MHz, licensed to and owned by Arizona Western College, a community college serving the southwestern corner of the state. The station broadcasts a news-talk and information format as its primary programming, supplemented by classical music and jazz programs. National programming comes from two of public radio's major content providers: National Public Radio and Public Radio International, giving listeners access to signature NPR news programs alongside international and cultural content from PRI. Since November 2013, the station's full programming schedule has been simulcast on 88.9 KAWP in Parker, Arizona, extending its reach to communities along the Colorado River corridor. The station maintains an active student newsroom, producing original local journalism on topics ranging from agriculture and immigration to community affairs and government. Student reporters collaborate with professional staff to cover local government, community events, and regional stories of significance to the area. As a listener-supported public broadcaster, the station serves an important role in a largely rural region where access to in-depth journalism and public affairs programming would otherwise be limited. Its position as a college-licensed station also makes it a training ground for emerging broadcast journalists, with student-produced content regularly appearing alongside national NPR programming. The dual mission of public service journalism and broadcast education reflects the broader mandate of community college broadcasting in the United States.
