KABN radio was a unique one-of-a-kind radio station north of Anchorage. It was started by a man named John Hale in the late 1970's, and was truly the last free format radio station where you could here Frank Zappa followed by Mozart with some Earl Monroe thrown in between. This 2.6 mb Quicktime Movie was produced by an Anchorage television station around 1986. Note the anchor is John Larsen, who would later to go on to work at NBC in the '90's. KABN radio was legendary in Alaska for it's unique flavor and quirky sound, and I'm lucky to have had the experience of being involved with KABN radio.
