KTUH (90.1 MHz) was Hawaiʻi's first non-commercial FM station. It signed on the air on July 7, 1969 and is a student-run, listener-supported station. It is owned by the University of Hawaiʻi  and it broadcasts from studios on the campus at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa.

The tour will be given by Kimo Nichols, a long-time DJ and host of the"Dawn Patrol Echo Chamber" - the best in boss Jamaican music, with heavy emphasis on the years 1968-1985.

The station also features prominently in the 2025 PBS Hawaiʻi program “In Hawaiian Hands: The Story of Reggae in Hawaiʻi” (Part I)  which traces the popularity and evolution of reggae in the Islands, from roots to the Jawaiian era, the precursor to today’s island music.
