News, talk and music
KPFA airs public news, public affairs, talk and music programming in a free-form, progressive format.
The first Pacifica station
KPFA signed on April 15, 1949, as the first Pacifica Radio station, and it remains the network's flagship. The call letters stand for Pacifica.
Listener-funded
KPFA is supported by its listeners rather than commercial advertising, which shapes its independent programming.

Beyond the main 94.1 signal, KPFA is relayed by translators on 94.3 FM in Monterey and 97.5 FM in Santa Cruz.
Owner
The station is owned by the Pacifica Foundation.
KPFA, anywhere
Press play and KPFA starts in seconds — in Berkeley, across the Bay or far from California. The stream on this page carries the same programming you hear on 94.1 FM.
Why listeners tune in
For more than seven decades, KPFA has been a home for independent voices, community programming and music you rarely hear elsewhere on the dial.
