Only in college XXXVIII

In 1993, KCOU improved its signal, allowing listeners who weren't able to pull in the station before to hear it.  If this had happened at a commercial news/talk station, it would likely be promoted in a stately, matter-of-fact recurring promo.  When you work at an irreverent college station, you might be more likely to promote it as I did in May 1993:

"...Hey, we have more power now.  We have more watts.  So, turn us up.  Blast us into oblivion, especially if you weren't able to hear us before or there was a lot of static."
