Don't get me wrong I love this stations spirit as they really do serve what is missing from commercial Radio and I really support these guys. I'll listen too and see if they are looking for any help as well.
I stumbled upon the station when I was doing my routine tests to see if my transmitter was interfering with other stations down the dial. Found WWND and at first I thought they were Pirate and here is why. Their promo's faded way too soon into the music. Then I heard an older gentleman say WWND Kilmarnock. Really I thought that is 6 miles from me. So I did the digging to see what was up and found this out.
I've only lived here since January 18th of this year and if I had been here long enough I may have found that someone was looking to put up an LPFM station that close to me and could have LEGALLY been a part of this. At least it would allow me to learn and catch up on some of rusty skills I have acquired.
What puzzles me is why was the license granted in April of 2016 and the window has been closed for sometime? Is there something we were not informed about? I might have been able to join his group and if he has other programming could have had an Album Rock segment legally going that range I wanted and it would have been Hobby Radio alright for this town.
Now I need to somehow be friends with him and most likely get more serious about AM here as to not cause any sort of interference to his station in an apartment right next to mine. I sure hope these guys have great success. Hats off to them.
