KUOW-FM 94.9 is a National Public Radio member station in Seattle, Washington. It is the larger of the two full-fledged NPR member stations in the Seattle/Tacoma media market, Tacoma-based KNKX is the other. It is a service of the University of Washington, but is operated by KUOW Puget Sound Public Radio, a nonprofit community organization. Studios are located on University Way in Seattle's University District, while the transmitter is on Capitol Hill.

Translators

KUOW is also carried on the following satellite and broadcast translator stations to improve reception of the station:

  • KQOW 90.3 FM Bellingham
  • KUOW 1340 AM Tumwater/Olympia

About KUOW

KUOW's site states its mission as, "to create and serve an informed public, one challenged and invigorated by an understanding and appreciation of events, ideas, and cultures."[2]

KUOW went on the air in 1952 on 90.5 FM.[1] Its transmitter was on the University of Washington campus atop the Administration Building, now Gerberding Hall. In 1958, Dorothy Stimson Bullitt moved KING-FM to 98.1 and gifted KING's 94.9 FM transmitter and antenna to the Edison Vocational School. That same year, KUOW started using the 94.9 FM transmitter operated by Edison. KUOW is one of the few public radio (or any non-commercial educational) stations on a frequency outside of the reserved band (88-92 mhz)[3]. For years, it served as a training ground for UW students to learn about broadcasting. Programming consisted of classical music, classroom lectures, local news, and Washington Huskies sports.{{citation needed|date=July 2014}}

In the 1960s, however, KUOW began branching out, adding more news programming. It was a charter member of NPR in 1970. In 1992, it changed format from music to news and information, and in 1999 it moved off campus to its current location on University Way.[4] Also in 1999, UW outsourced the station's operation to Puget Sound Public Radio.

The station operates two repeaters in the Puget Sound region in Bellingham on KQOW FM 90.3, in Olympia on KUOW AM 1340 (licensed to Tumwater), and on the Internet.

HD Programming

KUOW-FM broadcasts in HD.[5] Its signal is split between four channels. HD1 is a simulcast of the main KUOW signal. HD2 is home to "KUOW2," an expanded slate of NPR news programming which is simulcast on translator K214EW 90.7 FM in Bellingham. HD3 and HD4 are home to KUOW Jazz, a 24-hour jazz station that replaced simulcasts of World Radio Network on HD3 and BBC World Service on HD4. Both subchannels stream live on the Internet, as well as on KUOW's mobile apps.

Audience

KUOW's 2008 annual report states that the station served an average of 375,800 listeners each week in fiscal year 2008.[6] These listeners averaged eight and a quarter hours of listening per week to total more than 3 million weekly listener hours. In the same year, KUOW ranked second among all radio stations in the Seattle Metro market, with a 4.8% share of the market's radio audience.

Finances

KUOW's 2010 (fiscal year) direct support (money received) totaled $10,134,882.[7] Its sources were:

  • 60% individuals
  • 29% corporate
  • 9% government (largely the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and the University of Washington)
  • 2% other

Programs

KUOW produces several programs, most of which are concerned with local news and events:

  • The Record: Hosted by Marcie Sillman and Ross Reynolds. This midday news magazine covers a mix of local, national and international news every weekday. {{citation needed|date=December 2014}}
  • Speaker's Forum: Speaker's Forum airs speeches and presentations from a wide variety of specialties.{{citation needed|date=July 2014}}
  • The Swing Years and Beyond: Hosted by Amanda Wilde, The Swing Years and Beyond airs American music from the 1920s through the 1950s.{{citation needed|date=July 2014}}

KUOW also broadcast the Washington Talking Book and Braille Library's Evergreen Radio Reading Service to blind and handicapped listeners on its 67kHz subcarrier, until the service's closure on 2014 August 15.[8] KUOW was one of three major FM stations in Washington to do so; KPBX-FM in Spokane and KFAE-FM in Yakima were the others.[9] However, this required a special FM radio capable of receiving such broadcasts; it could not be received on a standard FM radio.
