Project Prometheus: Low Power FM Community Radio-To reach the people
Edited on Sun Feb-13-05 01:41 AM by BrklynLiberal
Wouldn't this be a great project to support and a wonderful to way to reach the people with our ideas?
This has the potential to become what local radio stations were before the conglomerates took over.

About Prometheus
Our Mission

* To serve as a microradio resource center offering legal, technical, and organizational support for the non-commercial community broadcasters

* To research and develop technical resources in anticipation of legalized micro-radio. Upon legalization, we will offer technical services to non-commercial micro-stations- equipment testing, frequency searching, submitting FCC applications, studio advice and so on

* To sponsor and produce educational tours, conferences, events and literature on microradio and democratic media issues.

* To serve as a public interest advocate on microradio issues, and to help facilitate public participation in the FCC rulemaking and legislative process.

* To help start a regional micropower association, which could eventually serve as a self-regulating association for low power fm analagous to the ARRL for HAM radio. Until this is formed, we will perform some of its future functions, primarily performing a coordinating and secretarial role to facilitate communications among existing stations.

1. I heard a long segment about this on Air America
this afternoon. It was aired on Marty Kaplan's show. Sounds really great.
