‱ Remembering Marin's first community radio station (pressdemocrat.com) — Kentfield gets a brief but notable mention as the original transmitter site for Marin’s first community radio station, KTIM, which began broadcasting in 1947. The story traces how this San Rafael-based station evolved from local news and talk to influential free-form rock, helping launch new artists and shaping Marin’s radio culture through the 1970s and beyond.
