We have encountered some issues with the manufacturer that produces the HD Radio equipment needed to complete our upgrades on WBAA Jazz 101.3 FM HD2. Unfortunately, WBAA Jazz HD2 will be off the air until the end of January. This has not impacted WBAA News AM 920 or WBAA Classical 101.3 FM. You can still listen to WBAA Jazz online at wbaa.org/listen-on-air and with the WBAA app. Thank you for your patience as we make these essential upgrades.

In Fort Morgan, Colorado, Muslims from East Africa are joining other immigrants from Central America and Mexico in the small, conservative farming community.

Luke Runyon (@LukeRunyon) of Here & Now contributor Harvest Public Media visited the high school and found a diverse student body and a community adapting to change.
