Inspirational Spot
We are KNOM AM & FM, "Yours For Western Alaska." The oldest Catholic radio station in the United States. KNOM strives to inform, uplift, inspire and entertain remote western Alaska listeners throughout a 100,000+ square mile signal area. We are a critical communications link, ready to broadcast life-saving information, while inspiring listeners with positive radio programming. Why is KNOM still on the air? Because of generous donors, a dedicated staff and loyal listeners! Your prayers and support keep us energized and focused on serving over 20,000 listeners all over bush Alaska. Good people from around the United States help us serve those in need with this critical radio mission. There is an inspired spirit of cooperation as we work together to overcome great odds in cold, remote Alaska. We are blessed to have marvelous friends who come to our aid. Volunteer Engineer Les Brown spent over 10 days at KNOM, flying in from his home in Palmer, Alaska. He worked on the Engineering Room and fixed various pieces of equipment at the KNOM radio studios. He also performed the quarterly tower inspection at the KNOM AM antenna site three miles east of the studios. Les took the time to mentor volunteer Kristina Proctor in her quest to learn about radio engineering, and help put together a facilities checklist to keep us up-to-date on all maintenance issues. With no full time engineer on site in Nome, this gift of talent and time made an incredible difference for all of us. Those who lend their support, prayers and kind words keep us on course, as we work to serve families who need encouragement and inspiration. They make it all possible.
We continue to work hard to meet the needs of the people of western Alaska. |
