“The news and weather are always changing in Northwest Arkansas,” KHBS/KHOG President and General Manager Shawn Oswald said. “Listeners can now stay up-to-date with 40/29 News and Get Ready Weather all day on Hog Radio stations.”

Hog Radio will also have the right to simulcast 40/29 Get Ready Weather during continuous coverage of severe weather.
