KSLG-FM is a commercial modern rock music radio station in Ferndale, 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, Facebook, and Twitter 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 -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, Matthews from 6 am to 12 noon PT and Reagan from 12 noon to 6 pm PT.

Myles Cochrane hosts his show "Myles To Midnight" on week nights from 6 pm to midnight PT and on weekends from 7 pm to mdnight PT.

Weekday middays were hosted by Jen Savage, but as of Fall 2009 she hosts weekends from 3-7 pm PT.

Slug Festivities Guide host Monica handles weekend middays (10-3 pm PT).

Personalities -Past

Plastic Jackson hosted the evening show "Happy Endings,"

Ashley Ramone covered nights, and had a special called "4 Degrees Of Tool" to link the rock band Tool to other artists..
