KYCC is a 24-hour ministry featuring the best in inspirational Christian music as well as some of America's top programs. Our studios are located in Stockton, California. Between our two stations KYCC and KCJH our signal covers the Northern and Central San Joaquin Valley.
Our network of translators allows us to reach across Northern California. Currently we have translators in Sacramento, ElkGrove, Vacaville, Dublin, Chico, Livermore and Antioch. YCC Network also is heard via a new satellite. We currently have translators in Reno, Nevada, and Kalispell, Montana, Provo, Utah, El Paso, Texas, and Alamogordo, New Mexico, which receive our signal via satellite.
KYCC is a listener-supported ministry, with two fundraisers each year: The "Friends & Family Reunion" in October, and the "Spring Sharathon" in April.
Your Christian Companion was the dream of Pastor Kenneth F. Haney of Christian Life Center who envisioned a Christian Radio Network that would impact the world. It all began as KCJH Radio that signed on in March 1975 with an output power of ten watts covering only the central portion of Stockton.
Pastor Haney chose our first call letters KCJH in honor to his father,
There was a desire to increase KCJH's power and at the same time provide 24-hour coverage to all of the Northern Valley, and in 1984 this became a reality! Our home base station KCJH broadcasts today at a power of 26,000 watts.
But on Sunday, August 15, 1999 KCJH (90.1 FM) in Stockton, California, swapped call letters with its sister station, KYCC in Livingston, California.
Since signing the Livingston station on in 1997 (at 89.1 FM), the ministry, has referred to itself mainly by its slogan, "Your Christian Companion."
However, in recent months the name has caused some confusion. Program Director Brent Randall said, "Recently, some identity problems have developed, mainly with the public at-large. Not suprisingly, the phrase 'Your Christian Companion' was not clearly identifying us as a radio ministry."
With this change, Randall stated, "We will still continue to use the slogan 'Your Christian Companion' throughout our broadcast day, but our name will now be 'KYCC.'" Randall continued, "Though our name has changed, our mission remains the same -- to be a ministry effective in reaching the needs of our communities. You can rest assured that, whatever our call letters, we will always strive to be worthy of the name: Your Christian Companion."
The need to provide the audience an opportunity to become more closely involved in the growth of KYCC was made known during the growing years 1979-85. As a result, "The Friends of FM 90" was created for listeners who desired to financially support KCJH' s commitment to reaching the multitudes. In 1985, KYCC renamed its annual fundraiser the "Friends & Family Reunion." Each October during the Reunion, the KCJH audience is faithful to call in and pledge its support for the coming year.
Since 1988, Your Christian Companion has been housed in the Darryl Seibold Memorial Communications Center at 9019 West Lane in Stockton. Facilities include the main broadcasting studio, two production studios, and offices.
In 1975 KYCC began with a dream; the dream for KYCC lives on! We invite you to allow KYCC to become Your Christian Companion in 1999 and into the future.
