KRCG-FM is a non-commercial public broadcasting radio station licensed to Santa Rosa, California, serving Santa Rosa, Healdsburg, Cloverdale, Geyserville, Windsor, Sebastopol, Forestville, Calistoga and surrounding areas in California.[1] KRCG-FM is owned and operated by Northern California Public Media.[5]

This station transmitted with callsign KRCB-FM until Northern California Public Media acquired the 104.9 FM frequency licensed to Rohnert Park, then commercial station KDHT, in 2021; the transaction was spurred when the Kincade Fire destroyed the tower used for the 91.1 facility.[6] The move to 104.9 gave Northern California Public Media a full-powered signal in the Santa Rosa area, and the KRCB-FM callsign was given to the bigger signal. Consequently, the KRCG-FM callsign was allocated to 91.1.
