Radiothon Special – The Miracle of Radio with KZMU Engineer Bob Owen

KZMU News · Radiothon Special: The Miracle of Radio with KZMU Engineer Bob Owen

Today, we bring you a special episode that aired during our Spring 2025 Radiothon fundraiser to celebrate the miracle of radio broadcasting. KZMU Engineer Bob Owen breaks down the science of sound waves and explains the journey our voices take to get from the station on Rocky Road to the ears of our listeners. We talk about how terrestrial radio connects us, literally, from transmitter to receiver, but also how it connects us as a community through that special human touch in our airwaves.
