Been away from the site for a while getting our Low Power FM Community Radio Station Set up. What a lot of work, but we are now broadcasting 24/7 in the northern NH area. Getting pretty good range for 100 watts! Got a nice site at the top of the hill in Bethlehem NH. For now we are playing all the songs that you normally wouldn'y hear on the radio (no hits). Eclectic alternative. Now it's finally maple season (better late than never!)

Is that a "Listener Supported" radio station? I used to subscribe to one in Atlanta (WRFG) when they played Bluegrass regularly. Now they play mostly stuff that I care nothing about.

Congrats on getting the LP station going. My wife was involved in starting one about 10 years ago, and it's been pretty successful.

It looks like your antenna base is relying on the dimension lumber and some concrete blocks to hold it in place (plus the guys, of course). Are those boards sufficiently immune to wind lift that way, or are they fastened through to the roof structure somehow?

What's your playlist? LP's? And if so, LP's of what type of music? Plan on streaming on the internet?
