KSLG-FM is a commercial modern rock music radio station in Hydesville, California, broadcasting to the Eureka, California area on 94.1 FM. KSLG-FM is branded as K-Slug, which refers to the banana slugs native to the region.

KSLG-FM actively uses MySpace as a tool to connect with fans and local bands in the Humboldt County area.

History

KSLG-FM launched on May 1, 2001, three years after Lost Coast Communications secured the license from the FCC. Lost Coast Communications paid another radio operator, Eureka Broadcasting, US$70,000 to withdraw a bid for the 94.1 Frequency, then had to secure investors to begin operating.

Personalities - Past and Present

In the beginning, KSLG had only two DJs: John Matthews, a veteran of KPFK in Los Angeles, and Dr. Syd Reagan III, "bastard son of '99 Republicans."

Matthews and Dr. Syd still man the morning and afternoon slots, respectively.

Weekday middays are hosted by Jen Savage, Plastic Jackson hosts the evening show "Happy Endings," Slug Festivities Guide host Monica handles weekend middays, with Ashley Ramone covering weekend nights.
