Are you tired of every radio station sounding the same?

Are the corporate radio giants serving your community?

Have you always dreamed of your own radio station?

On October 12-19, the FCC will open a rare window for issuing full-power, noncommercial radio licenses. Now may be your only chance to secure a license. Read the FCC's announcement.

* The window itself will only last seven days.
* You can only file your application during this seven-day window, so everything needs to be prepared in advance.

If you don't apply during this window, it will be many years before another licensing window opens and, frankly, there won't be much full power radio spectrum of value available after this issuing period.

These licenses will only be available to qualified community groups and nonprofits in certain geographical areas. Follow the link below to learn if there's likely to be a full-power radio station available near you.

Starting a radio station is no small undertaking. The application process alone will take considerable effort and costs thousands of dollars — and it will cost tens or even hundreds of thousands more to actually build a station. But the benefits to your community would be priceless.
