KXJZ began in 1970 as student-operated KERS at California State University. In 1979, KERS became KXPR, which broadcasted classical music, jazz, news and public affairs programming. In the 1980s, KXPR built a new tower, increased their signal power and was the one of the top 10 stations out of 255 nationwide that broadcasted 24-hours a day. In 1991, KXJZ signed on, broadcasting jazz, news, public affairs and locally produced specialty programs. Also in the 1990s, the organization joined all of its stations under Capital Public Radio. In 2004, Capital Public Radio moved in to its new broadcast studios and offices on the campus of California State University, Sacramento. More than 300,000 listeners tune into classical, jazz, news and public affairs programming each week on one of Capital Public Radio s nearly 10 stations serving California s Central Valley and the Sierra Nevada. KXJZ is headquartered in Sacramento, Calif.
