: : Thanks for replying, to answer your question about open format .....yes!
Some people think community radio means NPR, this project is just what it says..."for and by the community". You dont have to live in Will County
or pay for air time, or have professional experience. This radio station will be built and operated by volunteers who love radio and will work for free!
There are some FCC hurdles as you can imagine, too much for an email, also chasing around for donations and free equipment. This will not
be easy but it will be rewarding if radio is your passion.

If you have any questions, want to volunteer or have any advice please call me at: 815-791-8288

Thank You,
George


: : Would you like to be part of a community low power FM / AM station?

: : I am interested in creating a organization of volunteers to bring community radio to Will County. This will be no easy task! and there is no guarantee the FCC will approve the petition, but a dedicated group of true believers in radio just might succeed!
: : Our organization will need a mix of volunteers who have technical knowledge, show hosting abilities, fund raising ideas, and a little legal knowledge would be nice!
: : Having these qualities is not necessary, a love of radio and the determination to bring community radio to the Will County area is all a volunteer needs.

: : Anyone interested can contact George at : willcountylpfm@gmail.com

: Who says you have to live in Will County?

: So, what are your ideas so far? What kind of shows are you interested in? Will it be a completely open format? Will interested on air talent have to buy time? Where are you hoping to have your signal heard?

: Just wondering. I am not that far from Will. Sounds interesting.
