	Current Online \| CPB finds grant overpayments
		In 2001, the IG’s office found problems in audits of Long Beach’s KKJZ and North Dakota’s Prairie Public Broadcasting, but they were resolved without dispute, Tanner says.
		KKJZ counted the gross revenue it generated from a blues festival in 1998 toward NFFS when it should have counted only the net revenue, says Mark Roberts, the station’s v.p.
		While Roberts is lobbying to change the CPB policy—he believes it unfairly penalizes stations in older buildings—he doesn’t deny that KKJZ goofed in reporting its NFFS.

		LONG BEACH, Calif. -- KKJZ radio personality Kellen Yamanaka is fascinated by the fact that many among his new listening audience will not understand what he says on-air.
		That's because he is the "overnight guy" on KKJZ who will be the "drive-time" host in Japan, thanks to the 17-hour time differential.
		Jankowski says KKJZ's success and its expansion into a new and different market is evidence of the power of music.

		Two months later, between Mar. 9 to 12, KKJZ went on-air with a "mini fund drive" for the "signal campaign" with an eye toward a March 14 power increase.
		Even though the KKJZ website is turning away some potential ticket-buyers by stating, "there are currently no tickets for sale at KKJZ events," as of early May, general admission tickets to the festival were still available through Ticketmaster.
		But KKJZ was the big ratings winner, its weekly cume shooting up from 283,000 to almost 324,000 listeners, nearly a 15 percent jump into third place, basicaly tied with classical KUSC out of the University of Southern California, which slipped from 347,000 to 325,000 listeners.
