The Voice & Soundtrack for the Central Coast
Excellent Radio (1995-98) was among the early pioneers of the
movement to create a process by which communities could legally
apply for positions on the publicly owned airwaves. The station was
created as a model that became an inspiration to many other communities throughout the United States.
In 1998 the Grover Beach City Council issued an official proclamation
recognizing Excellent Radio for broadcasting City Council meetings for
three years and providing...
• A forum for community members to discuss local issues”
• A diverse cultural selection of musical entertainment”
• Easy and convenient access to local government information”
• Educating and entertaining members of the community”
Excellent Radio 107.9fm (http://kyxz.org) is dedicated to fostering….
• Cross–Generational respect
• Cultural Literacy
• Recognition of the Libraries as the centerpiece of the
community (The Commons)
• Mentoring through United Way’s outreach programs
of Health, Education and Income
The creation of this station has a lot to do with the overall
strengthening and educating our community for years to come.
What better gift for our children could we give today?
The transmitter and antenna are on the Nipomo Mesa
overlooking the entire South County.
