If you don't see the question that you have in mind, or if the answer isn't what you are looking for, feel free to contact us at kuni@uni.edu. We'll post more questions and answers as we receive them.

Take a look at our new schedule. It goes into effect on July 5. For comparison's sake, you can look at our old schedule, as well.

Why is KUNI changing its programming line-up? 

KUNI’s programming changes are designed to allow for greater audience growth for both KUNI and KHKE and to increase the level of public service that the stations provide. Having two consistent programming streams (KUNI –news and information and adult album alternative, KHKE-classical service) that serve our broadcasting areas will deepen our connection to our listeners and enhance our ability to help more people understand the cultural, environmental, social and political context in which they live and work. 

Where can I find my favorite classical and folk programming? 

Classical music programming will move to KHKE, which serves Northeast and Northern Iowa. KHKE will become a full-time classical music source with daily, local, classical music programs that, in addition, will highlight cultural arts events happening in the KHKE listening area. 

Folk programming will be moving from weekday afternoons to Saturday and Sunday from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. blending in with other KUNI programs like “Mountain Stage” and “A Prairie Home Companion."

What if I don’t live in the KHKE listening area? 

If you have enjoyed classical music on KUNI and you live in the Des Moines, Dubuque or Quad Cities area, there are several classical music alternatives. You can listen to KHKE via the World Wide Web at www.khke.org. Classical music can be heard in Des Moines by listening to WOI-FM, 90.1, in Dubuque, KSUI-FM, 91.7 and in the Quad Cities, WVIK-FM, 90.3.

Will KUNI’s programming change on the weekends? 

KUNI’s programming will change to accommodate the addition of folk programming moving from weekdays to weekends, airing on Saturday and Sunday from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

"Live from Studio One" won't be rebroadcast in its entirety. Instead segments will be heard during "Folk Roots and Branches" with Karen Impola.

"E-Town" will move from 1:00 p.m. on Sunday to 4:00 p.m. on Sunday.

"Fresh Air Weekend" will air on Sunday at 10:00 a.m. following “This American Life”.
 

I’m not familiar with KHKE-FM. Where can I receive this station? 

KHKE can be heard at 89.5 FM in northeast Iowa and 90.7 in the Mason City/Clear Lake area. KHKE can be streamed via the web at www.khke.org.

Where can I find Jazz programming?

Try KCCK, 88.3 fm, in Cedar Rapids. They also stream their programming through their website at www.kcck.org.

If you miss Bob Parlocha, the bad news is that he usually is aired by WFMT's Jazz Satellite Network between midnight and 6 am (KHKE recorded the programs and broadcast them at other times of the day). The good news is there is a list of stations at Bob Parlocha's website and they may air him (and stream the audio) at other times. Also, some of the stations on the list offer their own jazz programming and may provide an audio stream.
