sentences:  On January 18, 2019, KNIK-LP changed their audio format from smooth jazz (as "The Breeze") to classic country, branded as "Alaska's Real Country".The future of KNIK-LP on 87.75 MHz FM was in some doubt as the channel 6 channel position had been assigned to KYES-TV (which was commonly owned with KNIK-LP) for digital broadcasting after the analog signal was discontinued in 2009.However, recent information from Fireweed Communications President Jeremy Lansman indicates that KYES will remain on channel 5, post DTV conversion, in order to re-use existing KYES analog broadcast equipment.
