Sorry if this is long winded but we are proud of our programming because it is currently unlike anything else on the planet. Not only do we play many styles of music from various eras, but we've added several features to help avoid the annoying repetition in modern rock radio that ruins the listening experience for the music lover.

  • With over 4,500 songs in our uniquely balanced playlist, on average, our songs are only played twice every three weeks.
  • Most stations focus on one or two genres and some play multiple styles of music like KEGR-LP. But we go a bit further by adding classic Oldies on one end of the spectrum and some of the less aggressive songs by Thrash Metal bands on the other end.
  • Currently 80% of our songs are rips of vinyl records recorded by our staff. We have over 2,500 LPs and almost 4,000 45 rpm records of our own to pull from plus the albums donated or loaned to the station(Thanks again, Marty!). We play some artists and songs that were in regular rotation in their day but you can't even look them up on today's internet jukeboxes.
  • Unless it's when we play two songs in a row by an artist, it will be at least three hours between songs by the same band and most bands will have at least four hours between songs.
  • If you listen to the same two to three hour period, seven days a week you will not hear a song repeated for about a month and a half.
  • If you listen during the same hour of the day, seven days a week, you will not hear the same song again for up to six months. It would be longer but you can put us in the 'get rid of daylight savings' crowd.


Can your favorite radio station do all of that? The only "Yes" answer is if your favorite station happens to be The Kegger.

Our Metal show is on Friday and Saturday nights from Midnight until 2 or 3 . . . sometimes 4:00 am. It kind of depends if one of us is working late that night


We still have several more styles and eras of music coming, but, this not cheap and we do need some help. Our system requires that shows must have around 40-45 hours worth of music to pull from in order to help keep our rotation balanced and we can only play what we have or have loaned to us. If you have albums or CDs that you would like to donate or loan to KEGR to help us on future shows, our contact information is below.

The History of Our Station

We heard about the 2013 LPFM application window so we formed our corporation in October of 2013 with the goal of changing radio and applied for the license a month later. After several rounds of elimination, in August of 2014, we were awarded an 18 month Construction Permit. 17 months and two weeks later, we began broadcasting on January 

We heard about the 2013 LPFM application window so we formed our corporation in October of 2013 with the goal of changing radio and applied for the license a month later. After several rounds of elimination, in August of 2014, we were awarded an 18 month Construction Permit. 17 months and two weeks later, we began broadcasting on January 27th 2016.

We initially started with the bulk of our music from the Hard Rock era, 1977-1982, but we didn't just play Hard Rock. We also sprinkled in some Country, Punk, Disco and Pop from that time period. We played quite a bit from before 1977 and also added some early 80's Heavy Metal and some late 80's Thrash Metal into the mix.


The original rundown was 18 hours of regular rotation from 6 am until Midnight followed by a nightly one hour Thrash Metal show on Monday through Saturday. From 1 until 6 am we played full albums and repeated them every Sunday. We played 29 straight hours of albums in their entirety starting every Sunday from 1 am until 6 am Monday morning.

In July of 2017, Mike stumbled upon, and created, his new balanced rotation system. After months of building up the vinyl rips, we retired our original format and introduce our new rotation to the Matanuska-Susitna Valley in late February 2018. We were proud that 25% of our music was recorded off of vinyl records.

We were planning on launching the streaming website in early June but in May we received word that our lease was not being renewed as our little closet office was being absorbed by a larger unit. Luckily, we found a new office nearby and were only off of the air for less than four months. During that down time we focused on ripping more vinyl records into the computer. We re-launched on October 27th 2018 with our vinyl track total passing the halfway point with 55% of the playlist.

Various setbacks(most of them earthquake related) pushed our streaming audio back a year. Again, we used the unscheduled down time to bring the count of our vinyl rips up to our now current number of 80% of our playlist.

So we've finally reached the streaming stage of our station and begin our online presence now that we feel that we have a quality internet radio station to offer to listeners. 


On February 1st, 2020, with the hopes of moving straight from 94.1 to 101.7 and finally reach more than the just mudflats between Wasilla and Eagle River we started streaming covering our blend of 80's Hits, Classic Country, Pop Rock, Oldies and old school Thrash Metal mixed in with some of the faster Heavy Metal and Hard Rock songs in our collections.


However, a month and a half later, Covid shut down any chances for sponsorships and delayed our move to 101.7 until February 2021. After half of our board lost their jobs due to Covid, we shut down our streaming in early December before it re-ups for January 2021. We hope to start getting sponsors and donations now that we've moved to 101.7 and finally reach where people live in the valley instead of only reaching people on the drive to and from Anchorage. Then, we hope to start streaming again, either here again or somewhere else if we can find a cheaper alternative. Stay tuned . . . seriously and literally . . . 101.7 on your pre-set! Music 101
