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.
