About Us

 

88.7 The Pulse (KVIT-FM) is a community supported Hit Music station operated by the staff and students of the Radio and Audio Production Department at the Main Campus of the East Valley Institute of Technology (EVIT).

In 2015, EVIT acquired 88.7 FM giving Valley listeners a fun and upbeat alternative to corporately programmed radio stations. We play what is current and not what “the suits” tell us to play. We Play Today’s Hits and Your Favorites. We listen to our students, listeners, ourselves, our friends and social media to help us explore all the great songs and artists that are just beginning to “pop”!

The Pulse is also your go-to station for the best high school sports coverage throughout the East Valley. During football season, Pulse Sports presents the “Friday Night High School Football Game of the Week,” while also covering boys & girls basketball during the winter as well as baseball & softball in the spring. The broadcasts provide current EVIT Radio students the opportunity to gain valuable experience contributing as play-by- play announcers, analysts & onsite engineers. EVIT students also handle all of the pre and post-production of the broadcasts.

The mission of The Pulse is to provide a locally programmed station that is family-friendly, respects the voices of our listeners and responds to the needs of our community.

88.7 The Pulse is one of the most powerful High School radio stations in America, targeting young adults and families all over the Valley. In 2023 and 2021, 88.7 The Pulse was named The Best High School Radio Station in America by the John Drury High School Radio Awards.
