KXJC-LP Cave Junction Oregon

Listening Notes: KXCJ-LP in Cave Junction, Oregon

This past weekend I accompanied my wife for a short trip to Oregon’s Illinois Valley where she facilitated a Conversation Project for Oregon Humanities. Of course I tuned around the FM dial in search of something interesting and local. Quickly I stumbled upon KXJC-LP at 105.7 FM broadcasting from Cave Junction, an eclectic and artsy small town that, as the name implies, is the gateway to the Oregon Caves National Monument.

Saturday morning I heard two young women introduce a segment called “Ladyline,” and begin a discussion about environmental protection. Reading from a well written script, they sounded animated, convincing and very smooth. Looking at the station’s website I learned that it was part of the “Empower Hour,” which is a “teen-powered” show.

Later, during music programming, I heard the DJ read a PSA for the very conversation that my wife was leading later than afternoon. Now that’s the power of truly live, local radio, I thought to myself. Where else on the radio dial would we have heard that?
