Annie Whitney & Dave Webster, Anna Borland-Ivy & David Ivy, Erik & Par LeRoy and Pete, Marie & Mai Alexson

Thousands of vinyl records live and breathe at KBBI. Our program volunteers give new life to old performances that do not exist in the digital world. It’s still true. Vinyl does have a warmer sound. This is a must for the true analog lover. It is definitely worth your support!

Crisp, clean digital audio sound. KBBI has thousands of them. We like to think it’s the largest collection in town.

Jane, Kick back and relax on the KBBI front porch. Make it your little piece of heaven on earth. It includes the plastic deck chair. Enjoy the view of Kachemak Bay and the Spit. It’s also a perfect place to get out of the rain. Invite your friends. They're friends of ours.


Concert on the Lawn Stage

Wipe your feet before you come in. Our boot brush is the pinnacle of proper behavior.

The list wouldn't be complete without it. Sink about owning it! Won't you?



Transmitter Equipment                    $240

You will not need to know how this works or what it does. All you need to know is that if the red lights are off, it's a good thing. We'll do the rest.



Three Hole Paper Punch                    $120

No project makes it to completion without this useful office tool. Kathleen uses it all the time for the community calendar.


Phonolog                        $120

The Phonolog is the research tool DJs use to find the tune you requested. As the owner* we will list you in it too.





Fire Extinguisher                   Robert Purcell
The emergency tool of last resort. Don't worry, we won't call you to use it.


Your piece of KBBI* is our way we can thank you for your membership contribution during our Spring Membership Drive, April 2nd - 8th, 2005. But, the main reason to support KBBI is the programming. 25 years listener supported!



* It's a gimmick. You will not literally own the item. However, you will have the sole bragging rights for one year. We'll even take your picture with it and post it to the world. We encourage you to visit your piece of KBBI four times each year and spend some quality time with it.
