Back to the Radio Stations page

The KJR studios were located in the Skinner Building, downtown Seattle. In 1930, a small, cabinet-style 2/3 Estey Grand Minuette, opus 2945 was sold to the station.
 
In 1939, Balcom & Vaughan moved the organ to Bethany Lutheran Church in Warren, Oregon with two added ranks.
 
In 1947, the instrument went to the home of William Hubley in Seattle and it was enlarged to 12 ranks.
 
In the 1960's the organ was sold to Gennie Whitting who lived in the Northgate area of Seattle. The Estey console was replaced with a two-manual Robert Morton console formerly owned by Bill Bunch.
