KANW


KANW is a radio station based in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Launched in 1951, it is the oldest FM radio station in New Mexico. KANW is a public radio station run by the Albuquerque Public Schools. For most of the day it airs New Mexico music and local public radio programming, with some NPR news programming in the morning.
KANW is also broadcast on KANR 91.9 in Santa Rosa, KGGA 88.1 in Gallup, New Mexico, KIDS 88.1 in Grants, New Mexico, and KANM 90.3 in Grants, New Mexico. There is also an HD Radio format broadcast of KANW 89.1 FM.
In late 2016, KANW acquired two more stations from Educational Media Foundation. These are KANM 90.3 in Grants and KGGA 88.1 in Gallup, New Mexico. Both stations are former Air 1 outlets. KANM gives KANW two stations in the Grants area as KIDS already serves as a satellite of KANW so KANM now airs the news and talk format which also airs on a translator in the area.

KANW HD2

KANW broadcasts a news, information and talk format on its HD2 sub channel. Programming comes from NPR, Public Radio International, American Public Media and BBC World Service. This format is available in Grants on 91.1 K216AW and in Espanola on 91.1 K216GQ which upgraded its signal from 44 watts horizontal to 200 watts vertical in late summer 2015. On August 1, 2016, the format was made available in Albuquerque on 107.5 K298BY. In early 2017 the format was picked up on KDRI 90.3 in the Grants area which also continues to air on the 91.1 translator.
