KNHA-FM is a new, low power FM radio station with streaming on the web. It’s a local radio station from Coulterville, California, the Birthplace of America’s Best Idea, preserving National Parks. We will bring you the best in community programming, with a wide diversity of music around the clock as well as news and events.
Radio Station Manager and News Director manager Glynn Wilson will kick things off with a morning show inspired in part by “Chris in the Morning” from Cicely, Alaska on the CBS show “Northern Exposure.” With a little inspiration from Scott Simon on NPR’s “Weekend Edition.” Maybe a little Garrison Keilor from “Lake Wobegon.” We may even go all the way back to the Grand Old Opry on the radio to mine for jewels.
We are now actively raising money to pay the expenses to fund this radio startup and live streaming project. All contributions are tax deductible through the non-profit Operation New Earth. To contribute you can use PayPal or GoFundMe. Click on the link button below.
We are beginning to explore obtaining sponsors to also help fund this radio station startup and streaming operation. Get in touch if you would like to be a part of this exciting new development in community radio, which is becoming more important than ever as National Public Radio loses financial support in Washington, D.C.
The New American Journal is proud to be the founding sponsor of this effort by providing web hosting and design services, as well as writing and producing expertise.

The Radio Station has NO EMPLOYEES but we reserve the right to hire independent
contractors to provide necessary services. We also reimburse for actual expenses directly
related to the radio station. FCC regulations state no one associated with the radio station can “profit” from this relationship; however, factually informing the public who we individually are and our projects, programs within the local community, void of pandering, is acceptable as we are a unique community which should serve as an inspiration for others to imitate.
