  1. Agree with the others here. The new radio station is just another pop station while the old station had so much great music and personality. It felt like a real local station.

  2. Yikes!!! I can’t believe my favorite radio station, KVNA, that I’ve listened to in my car every day since I moved to Prescott Valley three years ago, is gone! Sooooo sad and disappointing. 🙁

  3. When I heard about the survey on air, I thought it was just to include or remove a few songs from the existing playlist. I had no idea a complete reformat was planned or I would have expressed my thoughts immediately. What you had was one of the few remaining stations unique to the Flagstaff area, with a distinctly mountain town “vibe.” I love all genres of music and am not an auditory elitist, but if the new format is focused on candy pop (no matter what era) and top 10 hits, you’ve lost the magic that made you unique to Northern Arizona. Please bring back the depth that made your station the magic recipe spot number one on my presets- otherwise it will be deleted but remembered for what it was.

  4. Agree- we were sad to hear the new format. The station used to be unique- the only alternative music with local sounds in the area. Have to find a new radio station to be our go-to now.

  5. the new kVNA sucks. The old station was so great. Now you sound like any other pop radio station – no originality whatsoever. So sad
