Marfa Public Radio is now broadcasting in Presidioon KOJP-95.3 FM. The station's 1,000-watt antenna is atop the Presidio water tower, known for its iconic abuela mural by artist El Mac.
Our new frequency will serve the border with news from National Public Radio, local reporting, vital emergency updates and DJs who play a wide variety of music — from classical to hip hop to oldies, and everything in between.
The addition of the Presidio was made possible through contributions from Big Bend Telephone, Grand Companions, First Presidio Bank and the City of Presidio.
