Here in Austin, TX we have 3 or 4 non-profit, community radio stations (two of them timeshare). Wait, actually one of them split into a news station and a music station a couple years ago, so now it's 4 or 5.
Radio's best currently working business model, is the Patreon model. Except, public radio has been doing it since before Patreon.
