WHAT'S GOING ON (in the Middle of November)

There are a couple weeks left of All Request Fall on KJRW.  Email your song request to kjrwwestseattle@yahoo.com.

The station has been checked out over 2 thousand times so far this month.  Listening is currently at the minimum to stay online.  Radionomy will be checking in on us again next month, so help us keep those listening hours up.

Our 7th year online begins next month!  Get Under the Covers once again this winter with KJRW.

WHAT'S GOING ON (at the beginning of November)




OH HELL NOvember!  A month ago, we weren't sure if KJRW would make it to November, but we did with your help. Hope you enjoyed the Great PUNKin tunes the last half of October.  

The play button was hit over 8 thousand times in October!  Folks spent over 46 hundred hours listening in the U.S., Germany, Canada, France, Hungary, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Estonia, Macedonia, Mexico, Uruguay, U.K., Netherlands, Singapore and Thailand.

Currently, we are 15% over Radionomy's listening requirements, but this is no time to relax. They may check in again on us next month, as we begin our 7th year online.

ALL Request FALL continues on KJRW.  Email your song requests now.

WHAT'S GOING ON (in the middle of October)


YOU DID IT!
KJRW lives to fight another day!  

We never received a congratulatory letter from Radionomy, but we're still online.

Thanks for listening in the U.S., France, Canada, Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, Macedonia, Hungary, Poland, U.K., Spain, Thailand, Mexico, Estonia, Italy, Costa Rica, Uruguay, Singapore, Argentina, Israel and all over the globe.

And thanks to our friends at Birch Street Radio for their support and a possible Plan B.  Dan's the Man.  Please listen to them for all the stuff KJRW doesn't play.  True variety on Birch Street Radio.

Keep listening to KJRW as All Request Fall continues.  Radionomy may check on our hours again soon.  

Spooky tunes will be haunting you this weekend through Halloween on KJRW!

WHAT'S GOING ON (in the middle of September)

All Request Fall is underway on KJRW.  You say it, we play it. Comment with a request or email it.

It is also that time of year we usually ask you to donate to our Go Fund Me page.  But we don't want your money this time.  This year we need something a little more precious in order to stay online -- your time.

If you want KJRW to stay online, you need to listen... a LOT.

Listening time has expanded 60% in just the last 2 weeks.  That's great.  But, we need it to be 43% higher in a few weeks than it is now or KJRW will be silenced.

So download the FREE Radionomy App for your phone or tablet,
or go to http://www.radionomy.com/en/radio/kjrw and spend some time with KJRW.

If just 55 more people spend one hour a day listening, we will meet our goal.
