history
The history of Hawaii Public Radio begins with the radio station KHPR . On November 13, 1981, the station went on air as one of the smallest stations in the USA. The workforce consists of two people: the "General Manager" Cliff Eblen and the "Music" Director "Bob Miller. The first studios were in rented rooms on the University of Hawaii campus . In 1987 HPI moved to its current studios. One year later HPI joined the US-wide public radio network of the NPR and put a second station on Maui into operation.
With the launch of KIPO in 1989, HPR expanded its program offering to include a “news and information” format.
In 2011, 65 percent of the funding for HPR came from voluntary contributions from listeners.
