With 200 + taxi rides given throughout this holiday season it is apparent that this kept many impaired drivers off the street. Unfortunately there are still many people making poor choices and this was reflected in DUI arrests over the holidays. The Prescott Police Department and the Tri-City DUI Taskforce continue to stress the importance of making good choices when driving and we stress to stay safe and don’t drink and drive,” Sgt. Corey Kasun of the Prescott Police Department said.

Since its inception in 1989, the program has helped thousands of people get home safely during the holidays. “The object of this effort is to make the roads safer during the holiday season and I think we helped accomplish that goal,” KPPV 106.7 FM owner Sanford Cohen said.

Sponsors of the safe ride program include KPPV 106.7 FM, Hensley Beverage Company, All City Kokopelli Transportation, Bucky’s and Yavapai Casinos, Tim’s Auto Group, Cable One and Prescott Newspapers Inc.

Do the Ride Thing is endorsed by all local law enforcement agencies.

Arizona’s Hometown Radio Group is owned by Sanford and Terry Cohen. Founded in 1985, they operate KPPV 106.7 FM in the Prescott quad-cities and also on 100.7 FM in Flagstaff; KQNA 1130 AM in the quad-cities, also on 99.9 FM in Prescott, Chino Valley and Paulden; KDDL 94.3 FM in Chino Valley and the quad-cities; KPKR 95.7 FM in Parker/ Lake Havasu City; and KUGO 102.5 FM TravelRadio at the Grand Canyon.

“We are pleased to announce this partnership with Prescott Valley Broadcasting and KDDL 94.3 FM,” said Arizona Sundogs Director of Business Operations Bill Yates. “We chose to develop this relationship with Prescott Valley Broadcasting because they are ‘Arizona’s Hometown Radio Group’ and they own some of the premier stations in Northern Arizona, including KDDL 94.3 FM, with a listenership that stretches across the entire region. For us to reach an agreement with KDDL to broadcast Sundogs games, both home and away, is a win-win situation for both organizations.”

As outlined by the partnership, KDDL 94.3 FM will broadcast all preseason, regular season and subsequent postseason games during the 2009-10 season.

“Arizona’s Hometown Radio Group has always been a strong supporter of the Arizona Sundogs,” noted Sanford Cohen, President and General Manager of Prescott Valley Broadcasting Co., Inc.  “We’re pleased to have KDDL 94.3 FM ‘Cattle Country’ be named the Official Radio Home of Arizona Sundogs Hockey and excited to be able to offer loyal Sundogs fans a quality radio broadcast.”

New for fans in 2009-10, all Sundogs radio broadcasts will be streamed live online at www.cattlecountryradio.com. Also new to fans this season, KDDL 94.3 FM will provide fans the opportunity to listen to radio broadcasts inside Tim’s Toyota Center during home games on radio frequency 97.3 FM. In addition, KDDL will broadcast all Sundogs game live with no tape-delays.

Sundogs radio broadcaster Jordan Duvall will continue to serve as play-by-play announcer. Duvall joined the Sundogs prior to the 2008-09 season after serving as Director of Media Relations and Broadcasting for the CHL’s Amarillo Gorillas in 2007-08. His previous experience also includes serving as play-by-play announcer for the Jr. ‘B’ Helena Bighorns of the Northern Pacific Hockey League (NorPac).

“I am looking forward to the upcoming season and working with KDDL 94.3 FM to provide the Sundogs faithful with a quality product throughout the season,” added Duvall. “In talking with their staff, we have a lot of great things in store for our listenership.”

The Sundogs are set to open the 2009-10 regular season at home at Tim’s Toyota Center on Friday, Oct. 16 and Saturday, Oct. 17 against the expansion Allen Americans. Both games are slated for 7:05pm (Arizona time) starts. Season tickets are available for as low as $350. Ask about the ‘No-Risk Protection Plan’.

Weekend Spotlite host Ken Byers and his guests hit the local airwaves from the Lariat at the Quality Inn in Prescott Thursday at 5 p.m. with a newly installed wireless antenna by Bulleri Networks of Prescott making it KQNA’s first live show to broadcast without the assistance of any telephone services. In the past the live broadcasts used analog phone lines and low frequency transmitters.

Byers, who is Arizona’s Hometown Radio Group Vice-president of Broadcast Operations and host of the popular show, said Friday that broadcasts of the live Weekend Spotlite show are now as crisp and clear as any directly fed program giving the radio audience a distortion free listening experience.

“I’m excited about it,” Arizona Adrenaline president and CEO Wade Cunningham said Thursday.  “Being hometown owners it just makes sense to be affiliated with Arizona’s Hometown Radio Group. Especially for people to be able to listen to away games live, that’s a great service to our fans.”

The Adrenaline adds to a list of other sports teams the radio group broadcasts. The Arizona Diamondbacks, Phoenix Coyotes and Arizona Cardinals also air live on KDDL 94.3 FM and sister station KQNA 1130 AM.

The local station group has been the Arizona Cardinals local affiliates since 1995. They added the Coyotes affiliation in the 1997 season and finally, the Diamondbacks in their inaugural season back in 1998. “Let’s Talk Sports”, a locally produced sports talk show, debuted on KQNA 1130 AM in July, 1994, setting the stage for the addition of the other pro sports broadcasts.
