Well folks, that tends to happen with markets too absorbed in their own interests to care about YOURS in YOUR neck of the woods.
But fact is, we may be in some COOL (potentially) entertainment off of 1520 kHz. Or 104.5 MHz. Or 88.9 MHz in the Bellevue area. All pretty much scheduled for next year.
It is not US, it is THEM that program radio today.
Really want something different? Then show up and discuss YOUR ideas.
Radio is TRULY the public's medium because it is everywhere. You can't imagine, here in the States or Provinces what radio would sound like in say, Malawi?
So I say dedicate some of those HD airwaves to music and culture far beyond the USA. Not just Talk/News but add a truly MUSIC format from beyond...
Some ARE trying, but they aren't PROMOTING enough! How the hell exactly are you expecting these HD sub-carriers going to take off if you don't PROMOTE THEM?
Damn it folks, if you're gonna make radio work, then DAMMIT! Make radio WORK!!
DAMN IT. DO I HAVE TO DRAW YOU A PICTURE?
Otherwise, Cheers!,
