Q:  What is HomeTown Radio?

A:  The areas only daily news source dedicated only to Amador 
      and Calaveras Counties.

 

Q:  Why do I need a "Special Radio" to pick up HomeTown
      Radio?

A:   HomeTown Radio broadcasts on the sub-carrier of 94.3, the
       old KNGT in Jackson.

 

Q:  What happened to KNGT?

A:  After nearly 30 years of local ownership, KNGT was sold to an
      investment group from Texas, who in turn sold to Univision
      Radio and the format was changed to Spanish language.

 

Q:  Has "SCA" Broadcasting been around long?

A:  YES, for many years the Muzak Company used radio sub-
      carriers to pipe music into department stores and office
      buildings.  Then in the mid 80's the company switched to a
      satellite delivery system.

 

Q:  How did the current form of "SCA" Broadcasting get
      started?

A:  In many large cities across the nation, growing ethnic
      populations were looking for ways to broadcasting news of
      their homelands and local community, and the present form of 

     "SCA" Broadcasting was born.

 

Q:  How did HomeTown Radio get it's start?

A:  After exhausting all avenues to find an AM or FM frequency for
      the area, longtime KNGT employee Jim Guidi came upon the
      idea of "SCA" Broadcasting.

 

Q:  Are the special radios expensive?

A:  NO... the radios, which also pick up the FM Band, run around
      $30.00, about half the cost of the average monthly cable bill.

 

Q:  Is there a subscription fee for HomeTown Radio?

A:  Again the answer is NO... The one time purchase of a
      HomeTown Radio provides you with the latest news and
      information without the worry of continuous monthly fee or 

      subscription rate increases.
