KUTE-FM assumed the Four Corners Public Radio format, serving a larger regional audience with NPR programming and varied music.

KSUT-FM, now branded as Southern Ute Tribal Radio, returned to its original mission of serving the reservation and surrounding area with Native American programming.

In addition to the Music Blends, locally-produced programming on Four Corners Public Radio includes evening blues, alternative country, Celtic, world and bluegrass shows.

In November 1999, KSUT Four Corners Public Radio took top honors in the "Special Projects" category by the El Pomar Foundation for its annual Awards for Excellence.
