College stations are usually the hold outs for non-mainstreamed music, in my experience. I was also a college DJ, so +1 for college radio, even if your tower can't reach past the parking lot. ;)
- don-code 3y agoWITR Henrietta / Rochester here - we had a 705-watt transmitter on top of the dorms that was good for about 15 or 20 miles.
- sonicanatidae 3y agoKNWD - Natchitoches, LA. This was long, long ago, but I believe we had something like a 10 watt tower. REACHING THE BEACHES...kinda, STORMING THE DORMS, sorta. ;)
- JKCalhoun 3y agoAgree. It's almost like there should be a station in every metropolitan area that is reserved for public access — divide the week up into 30-minute spots and let the public sign up for those slots to DJ.
- sonicanatidae 3y agoAM radio is kinda like that now. Air time on AM is cheap, like super cheap, so often people rent their own airtime and do shows. Nothing amazing, but it does happen quite often.
- wishfish 3y agoMany cities already have essentially this. Community radio. Usually on the left end of the dial near NPR and the christian music stations.
- don-code 3y agoFM stations up to 91.9 are allocated for non-commerical use. This is where you typically find college radio, NPR, and so forth.
