Thank you, but it doesn't look like I would qualify. From their website:

Ka You Communications...our mission is to manage service and pricing to maximize the power of the Christian broadcasting community. We strive to provide good stewardship to the finances used for program distribution. We are a service organization dedicated to quality transmission and distribution of audio, video and data. We are responsive to our members and their mission. We are an organization that operates according to Biblical principles. We are called to serve those broadcasters that serve the Kingdom.

Yeah, I guess I've only worked with them via Christian Stations...didn't realize that's the only market they serve. Great company though.

How often? What kind of coverage?
Need something that anyone can access, or just radio stations with specific downlink equipment?

WRN (World Radio Network) brokers for international service on an occasional-use basis.

Globecast World TV will carry your programming on their Galaxy-25 International Programming DTH (Direct to Home) service.

Both DirecTV and DISH Network do BTV (Business TV), if you need to reach a large number of US sites with an encrypted feed (though, they mostly do video).
 
If you'd like to broadcast it in the clear, and want it heard by just anyone (not directed to stations only), the Globecast WTV thing is cool. Check out their offerings on Lyngsat:

http://www.lyngsat.com/galaxy25.html

You'd need to get to one of their uplinks with your programming. Globecast is in LA, you could also check with PIT (Pittsburg), or RRSat (also in the LA area). This satellite is very popular with ethnic groups and with the FTA (Free to Air) hobbyists.
 
Pittsburgh International Teleport.

If you are near the east coast, they might be a good, closer uplink.
I'm not sure if Globecast WTV still uplinks from NYC...although they probably could backhaul from there to LA.
