They serve the community with a wide variety of music in public affairs broadcasting and I can highly recommend it. Whenever I'm in range of the transmitter, I keep my station 91.9 MHz. It's also available on the web at KCSB.org, or on radiofreeamerica.com.

I'm a longtime supporter of KUSC here in the Los Angeles area, and listen to it as I do most of my work in the Los Angeles and San Fernando Valley areas. However, when duty takes me to the north, I tune in to KDB. The only word that comes to mind is...serene. For a while, I had thought that KDB was gone in the winds of station-format change. How grateful I am they are still here, and that I can hear them online now as well.

I have never meet such rude people in the United States. I did not even have to even walk into the…read moreKjee second floor office to meet the most uptight, arrogant, and rude people in Santa Barbara. The station is directly next to a Good Will donation store and center. The people of Santa Barbara are wonderful and every time I go to Goodwill to donate, the parking lot is full of other people already donating goods. This time, as the lot was full, I turned on my emergency flashers and parked in the only open space next to a Kjee truck. I'll be honest the spot did have a restricted no parking sign, but all I needed to do was drop off shoes then leave. As I stepped out of my car, Kjee employees run up to my car, speak to me with profanity, and demand I move my vehicle. They were not kind, they did not explain why I could not run to drop off my donations, and they were not willing to listen to a word I said. Of course I moved my car, but how rude of anyone to speak to another in such manner? After donating my items to Good Will, I walked into the office to demand an apology or an explanation for the obscene language as I was truly embarrassed. The office employees just ignored me. Needless to say, I will never listen to Kjee radio station again and hope other people choose not to too. I wish all good luck trying to bypass the Kjee bridge tolls to donate items to Good Will. Finally, I do not recommend anyone to step near near this office or even attempt to communicate with these inhume people. Imagine working for them. What kind of training would that be?

I used to love Kruz. Then, on 12/1/2012, they changed 97.5 to the "Positive Alternative." If you…read morecouldn't tell from the not so subtle slogan, the station is now Christian Rock. I will never listen to the station ever again. The music sucks now; not only is it very generic sounding, but it is crappy Christian rock. I'll especially miss the acoustic sunrise on the weekends. Goodbye Kruz, it's been nice, but the "Positive Alternative" is all negative in my book.

Pheeeewwww, finally! With the exception of KCRW's weird music schedule, I thought I'd never find…read morea decent adult alternative rock radio station in the 818. Well, actually, I haven't exactly. Turns out KRUZ broadcasts out of Santa Barbara, in the 805, but I *am* able to pick up the signal in the Conejo Valley and most areas of the San Fernando Valley. The music format of this radio station reminds me a lot of Radio Alice, up in the Bay Area, and I for one am very happy to have found a similar radio station down here in SoCal!

Its like they only have a few cd's at their radio station to play. The same songs and artists especially, Tom Petty, Billy Joel, ELO, Billy Idol, Steve miller etc. Would not be bad if they played different songs from these artists, but its always the same artists and songs. I think they need new management that would play a better variety of songs. Maybe a rule not to play the same songs and artists in a 24 hour period would be a better action plan. Lets do better Team.

He just was really a jerk to everybody. You could tell he must've been difficult to work with because that was always a rotating variety of sidekicks. Before he was there, the station was awesome in the morning. Thank God he is gone! But the other reason is that they seem to have a greater variety of music now. For the longest time they played the same doesn't songs over and over again. You would never hear anything that was less than rock pop. If I want to listen to a pop station, I would turn on K-earth 101.1. That said, I feel comfortable giving them a four star rating.
