## Broadcasting Across the Last Frontier: The Reach of KCHU Public Radio
Imagine a radio station covering an area the size of Ohio. Now, imagine that same area populated by only a small town's worth of people. That's the reality of KCHU Public Radio, broadcasting from Valdez, Alaska, and reaching across a vast and sparsely populated region. Known on-air as Terminal Radio 90.5 and broadcasting under the call letters KXGA, KCHU defies geographical limitations to bring vital programming to communities scattered across the Alaskan landscape.
Serving a region comparable in size to the Buckeye State, yet with a population just over 10,000, KCHU's reach is truly remarkable. Utilizing a main transmitter, two full-service FM stations, and two translators, KCHU ensures its signal penetrates the remote corners of its listening area. This intricate network allows residents across a challenging terrain – from rugged mountains to expansive tundra – to stay connected to news, information, and entertainment.
