It's a mix of Analog-FM and digital microwave on 950, T1 lines (though those are less well maintained by the carriers as time goes on), and some other stuff. ISDN is only used for backup facilities as far as i know. The posher places are using digital microwave AFAIK. KFJC is still on analog FM. KKUP as well. There is one local company that just set up a private broadband digital microwave (TDM-plus-packet) from HQ to all their sites, with the hub on a prominent mountain in the area. The carrier-based T1 lines will be all gone when that goes live.
