KQED is San Francisco's public radio service, heard on 88.5 FM and streamed here in 128 kbps AAC. KQED-FM returned to the air in 1969 as the radio arm of KQED television and became an early NPR affiliate, carrying flagship news magazines alongside its own productions such as Forum and The California Report. Long ranked among the most-listened-to public radio stations in the United States, it anchors news and conversation for the Bay Area.
