You Ask the Questions
Vote on Which Questions CapRadio Investigates
We Report the Answer
We know you have a lot of questions about the place you live. So do we. Let's find the answers together!
CapRadio's Great Question! is where we invite you to be part of the reporting process. All we need from you is your curiosity.
Here's how it works: You ask the questions, vote on which ones to investigate, and CapRadio will work with you to find the answer.
