Thread Name: BS: Low-Power FM Radio (US)
Subject: RE: BS: Low-Power FM Radio (US)
I am a programmer at a low power f.m. station.
KRBS has a wewb site...www.radiobirdstreet.org.
People who do lots of support work to help these
stations get going are the Prometheus Radio Project.
http://www.prometheusradio.org/
You can see some info and links to radio workshops,
and conventions on our web site.

in the case of public access television,
there are often contracts between local
cities, and cable operators, as there
has been some legislation requiring
programs for P. E. G. (Public, Educational, and Government)

i am not sure if this applies to radio,
but i do wish yo uluck in your endeavors.

The prometheus project sponsored a station
last year which was mainly for farm workers
to communicate with each other in Oregon.

They were very helpful in helping us to start
up our station. I wish you luck, and let us
know what you come up with. (unfortunately
there have been some recent changes which
are detrimental to stations, esp. ones that
play music, see the threads about internet
fee hikes, etc.
