Just a note to let everybody know that we bought our new board (Arrakis ARC-15, if you wanna look it up) and it'll be delivered this week! Then Chris, Twisty and i will read up on the manual, make sure we have all the bits n' bobs we need, and do the switcheroo while the music shuffle and syndicated programs play out some afternoon, soon!

This board is of much better quality than our current one, and will hopefully last for years and years to come. It was quite a stretch and a challenge for us (it cost $3,450) but we needed to take action-- we've had increasing problems for months with the board we're using now.

Here's the important part: once we made this tough decision, and we decided to raise all the money for it up front and not deplete our bank account-- we did it all in three weeks, through donations large and small, from our friends, from listeners, from DJs, and from "Scout's fairy godmother", who donated $1000 toward its purchase, in honor of Scout and her love for KXCJ.

My thanks to all of you! We all make and re-make KXCJ together, every day-- and it's wonderful to know KXCJ is loved and supported by a large community of folks, throughout our valley, and beyond.
