It’s been my privilege to bless this community with the great music and companionship on KDUN AM 1030 for the better part of past four years. Thank you for giving this radio station your attention and support.
Reedsport is in my heart. So is this radio station, KDUN, when I started my radio career in 1974 as a junior high student before realizing a wonderfully blessed radio career that continues today. When the opportunity to put this radio station back on the air in 2021 become a possibility I jumped at the opportunity. I surrounded myself with so many talented individuals who helped me bring this radio station back to life. I’m proud of how we were able to entertain and inform you, whether it was with great music, fun conversations, local high school sports play-by-play coverage and so much more.
I’ve met so many wonderful people and re-connected with so many friends, old and new, in the process of being the owner of KDUN AM 1030.
Sadly, we can no longer continue to provide service and have returned the radio station license to the FCC for another broadcaster to provide service in the future. Bob Larson has done a wonderful job of managing the station the past year and he poured his heart and soul into keeping us on the air. Ryan Warrey, our engineer, has made multiple trips from the Seattle area to our little hamlet to maintain equipment and many special people have worked together to make the station a part of Reedsport. But sadly there is not enough business to sustain a commercial radio station.
I look forward to many more visits to Reedsport, more high school reunions and more special moments with friends in the area.
Until we meet again on the radio, God Bless!
