KJHM (101.5 FM, Jammin' 101.5) is a commercial radio station licensed to Strasburg, Colorado, that broadcasts to the Denver, Colorado area airing a Rhythmic Oldies format branded as Jammin' 101.5. KJHM transmits at an ERP of 93,000 watts at 600 meters from a tower about 60 miles northeast of Denver near Leader, sharing a tower with sister station KFCO. KJHM's signal isn't as strong in the Downtown Denver area as well as the western suburbs (Arvada, Lakewood, and Wheat Ridge) even though there is a booster in Commerce City, which helps with the signal reach closer to Denver. Its studios are located on Parker Road in Aurora.
KJHM was originally KBRU 101.7, licensed to Fort Morgan with an adult contemporary format. KJHM-FM still has clear coverage over its old city of license.
The station was branded as "101.5 Martini On The Rockies" as KTNI, an adult standards format, for two years until switching to an "Indie" modern rock format in February 2008. When the station changed, they used an on-air clicking sound effect of an iPod being randomly selected to play a song supposedly on the station's music playlist, to suggest the next song could be anything that was available on the device. This approach was used for a couple of months until it lost popularity with listeners.
According to FCC filings, the station's owner (KBRU-FM, LLC - a subsidiary of Denver Radio Company) sought bankruptcy protection in February 2008 and has since emerged from bankruptcy.
On January 16, 2009, the debtor in possession for Denver Radio Company received permission to operate the station temporarily without a main studio within 25 miles of the community of license, which is a requirement for all commercial radio stations. It plans to operate and run the station from a consolidated facility with station KONN in Aurora, Colorado.
