THANKS WE MADE OUR GOAL!! It took the biggest fundraising Monday of all time - and an Oscar-winning challenge to our listeners, but KVMR has made our $100,000 winter membership drive goal. Film director and best selling author Michael Moore made a surprise phone call to us Monday afternoon and offered to match every donation until we reached our goal...some $5000 off. Well, 76 of you more than made Moore's match, you helped us raise over $103,000 total. Thanks to all 901 of you who made an investment in community radio and independent media during the week. You can help us - and you - save postage paper and other supplies by promptly paying your pledge. And, remember, some thank you gifts may take up to 10 weeks to get to you because they're ordered after the drive. As for Monday, we raised a record $21,000 that day alone, including over $11,000 on a Money Matters special with Marc Cuniberti that morning, plus Michael Moore's twenty two hundred dollar donation that you folks more than doubled in matchs. And if you didn't get a chance to make a contribution to KVMR during the drive. Don't worry. You can still make a gift securely online at kvmr dot org You can call our membership department weekdays 530/265-9073 extension 203...or you can honor the broadcaster on the air right now by calling 530/265-9555 or 800 355 kvmr. Real community. Real people. Addressing Real Needs. Thanks again for your generosity in an important time for KVMR.

"Hey! How do I get better reception?" We share the frustration of any listener who may be challenged receiving KVMR 89.5 FM. Let me first point out that the reasons may be different for different listeners-some may be an easy fix and the others may not. Some may be challenged by geography, while some may be affected by a nearby radio station on or next to the same frequency as ours. Here are some suggestions for improving your reception of KVMR. Keep in mind that the following are general suggestions and that every situation is unique. Start with the simple and work your way up. Click here for the full article . . . We encourage listners to offer their own ideas and suggestions to help others get better KVMR reception; email your ideas to David Levin, our General Manager, at; gm @ kvmr.org
