History

KAHU started broadcasting as a community radio station on June 28, 2010. The station later experienced financial trouble and was sold to Hawaii Public Radio on August 5, 2013.[4][5] It began broadcasting again on November 6, 2013, airing Hawaii Public Radio's HPR-2 programming.[3]

On February 14, 2017 KAHU changed their format from HPR 2's news, talk and jazz service to HPR 2's classical music service, as part of Hawaii Public Radio's realignment of its program services.[6]

Construction permit

KAHU had a construction permit to move its antenna to a higher location, increase its power, and change frequency from 91.7 to 91.3 MHz.[2] The license for this new facility was issued on October 21, 2016.

gollark: Anything THAT overpowered would have been patched out ages ago.
gollark: This seems implausible. Not only would this violate causality and many other things, there's no plausible mechanism for how this works, and GTech™ testing *frequently* appeared to cause ☭-¬☭ pair production and annihilation which did not destroy the universe.
gollark: Er, 232.
gollark: Well, in that case, why would annihilation be a problem? It would only release 300GeV or so per ☭-¬☭ annihilation.
gollark: GTech™ collider experiments determined a mass of only 116 GeV ±4.2%, though.
