How to Hear “The Mix” in Prescott Today: 106.9 FM and What Changed at 98.7
In Prescott and the Quad Cities, “The Mix” is the familiar Adult Contemporary station that keeps workdays moving and weekend drives upbeat. You’ll find it today on 106.9 FM as KPPV, the long-running local brand that blends current favorites with feel-good classics and a personable, community-minded presentation. If you’ve listened around town for years, you probably remember hearing The Mix on different dials and translators; the constant has been its easygoing soundtrack and local focus.
Here’s the clarity for 2025 listeners. The primary way to hear The Mix is 106.9 FM, which covers Prescott, Prescott Valley, Chino Valley, and Dewey-Humboldt with a strong, reliable signal. The station also streams online, so you can move from car to phone to home speaker without losing the vibe. That flexibility matters during busy seasons when traffic and tourism can make commutes unpredictable.
What about 98.7 FM (K254CB)? Historically, that local translator helped extend The Mix around Prescott. In 2025, however, the translator’s mission shifted and it may now carry different programming. That’s why some longtime presets sound unfamiliar. If 98.7 no longer plays your AC favorites, simply set a preset to 106.9 and you’ll be back with the station that feels like home.
Why do these changes happen? Translators are designed to fill in coverage and can change their source as engineering needs and licenses evolve. For listeners, the practical takeaway is simple: when a secondary frequency moves on, the flagship 106.9 FM remains the most consistent way to hear The Mix across the Greater Prescott area.
Whether you’re opening the shop at sunrise, cruising down Gurley after lunch, or winding home at dusk, The Mix 106.9 brings a bright, office-friendly sound that fits life at elevation. Save 106.9 FM on your dashboard, add the stream to your phone, and keep the music that Prescott knows by heart close at hand.
