KPCC (FM 89.3) – branded LAist 89.3 – is a non-commercial educational radio station licensed in Pasadena, California. KPCC itself serves primarily serving Greater Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley; through rebroadcating and translator stations, KPCC's programming also reaches the Santa Barbara, Coachella Valley, Palm Springs, and Ventura County, California areas, and part of the Inland Empire area.[2] Owned by Pasadena City College and operated by the American Public Media Group's Southern California Public Radio (SCPR), KPCC broadcasts a mix of public radio and news;[citation needed] in addition to serving as an affiliate for National Public Radio and Public Radio Exchange, it originates some of its own shows.[3] Besides a standard analog transmission, KPCC broadcasts over two HD Radio channels,[4][needs update?] The studios are located in Pasadena, and the station transmitter is on Mount Wilson. It is one of two full NPR members in the Los Angeles area; Santa Monica-based KCRW is the other.[citation needed]
As of 2023[update], SCPR served "more than 527,000 listeners each week".[5]: 45
