Nevada City Community Radio; one of the locally-receivable radio stations.

KVMR-FM is a volunteer-based, listener-supported radio station fostering positive social change by entertaining, informing, and educating our community through the presentation of diverse music, cultural, news, and public affairs programming. - Their Mission Statement.

KVMR is a great independant station that can be heard, but reception can be dicey in Davis, so its good to know you also have the option of listening online.

The station's call letters stem from the abbreviation of where the station was originally located, at the American Victorian Museum on Spring Street in downtown Nevada City. K refers to any station west of the Mississippi River and the VMR stands for Victorian Museum Radio. 

The radio has moved a few times in it's history and is located in downtown Nevada City. Some of great shows over the years (see their website for current listings) include Who Cares? Friday at noon, hosted by the wonderful Joan Buffington; Organic Matters, every second Friday 1 PM hosted by Amigo Bob Cantisano; The Wednesday morning show, 7am-10, with Steve Baker; and the End of the Trail Saloon with Dan Scanlan  every other Sunday night 10PM-12AM.
