Airwaves propagate entertainment
Welcome to the airwaves of Eugene. For
those of us too poor or lazy to invest in a stereo
and album collection, local radio stations provide
our only means of regular musical enjoyment.
The FM band contains 10 stations, the AM
seven. The variety rivals anything found in the
big city, with classical and jazz, all the way to
punk rock and heavy metal; a heavy dose of
mainstream pop rock floats in between.

• kUX 89.7 airs a format of jazz, folk music
and new age electronic music. “It's different from
sign on to sign off." said Michael Canning, opera
tions director. The "ICC" stands for Lane Com
munity College, its sponsor. Some of the many
shows include "Ahora Si" a Spanish language
music and talk show. "Tropical Beat" with Afro
pop and Caribbean music and the "New
Dreamers" electronic music show. Another add
ed feature is the no-nonsense and critically ac
claimed National Public Radio's Morning Edition
news.
• KWAX 91.1 distinguishes itself as one of
only two 24-hour classical music stations in
Oregon. The format carries modern and tradi
tional renditions of classical scores in addition to
opera. The University owned and operated sta
tion broadcasts out of Villard Hall on campus.
The station broadcasts regular BBC newscasts,
the MacNiel/Leher News Hour, and Business
Update.
• KRVM 91.9 offers the most eclectic pro
gramming in Eugene, bar none. The weekday for
mat includes jazz, new wave, swing, and blues in
schizophrenic succession. The station’s goal is
"to serve all unserved audiences,” according to
Program Director John Etheredge. Classical and
mainstream pop are the only sounds left out.
Saturday morning opens with "liven John's
Country Classics.” Sunday nights end with the
"Modern Mono" hardcore punk rock show.
• kSND 93.1 devotes itself to the pop rock
spectrum. "What we play is based on what sells
best in Eugene and Springfield," said David
Shakes, program director. Special shows include
Wednesday night's "Rock Over London,”
"Hitline USA," and the "Rick Dees American
Music Magazine" on early weekday mornings.
• KMGE 94.5 falls into the category of "adult
contemporary.”
Eugene has three FM and two AM stations
