Sounds like a good solution, or at least the right direction... so how did it work out?

I'm not sure what it actually costs to run a station nowadays... I vaguely recall that back around 1980, KGLT's annual budget was something like $5000.

Happy New Year Everyone


I originally posted this 3 weeks ago and had a discussion with several folks, but no one was actually able to help with my question/request.

Can anyone oblige me?

Email me, walkerbroadcasting at that gmail dot com thing.

I am looking for someone who would record the local radio stations in each town, KMMR in Malta at 100.1 and KVCK AM/FM in Wolfpoint, on tape and mail them to me. I will supply the cassettes and a postage paid return envelope.

You see, I have no illwill meant or alterior motives.. i simply love hearing local, small town stations and their programming. I've worked at stations like KVCK and KMMR most of my career and thats what I enjoy.

I know KVCK is/was rebroadcast in Glasglow, MT on K296BW at 107.1 FM.

Anyone is welcome to email me, walkerbroadcasting(at)gmail(dot)com if they can help or have any questions.

By the way, emailing me privately would be preferred. Not that I don't wanna check back here for new posts, but the likely hood my absent mind will remember to check.. well, isn't too likely.. lol.

Thanks again for reading and understanding!

To my knowledge, there is nobody on the Montana forum that is located in those areas. At least nobody has mentioned living in either, or close to either. That may be the reason for no reply's.

There has to be a bit more that that.. Sorry if I offend, but when someone says they have no ill will, but just live hearing certain local radio stuff it gets me wondering about the motives... especially when you pointed out certain areas... What's the point?

I've worked in local radio my entire career, and love hearing how other stations do their 'thing". KVCK and KMMR don't stream online,so I can't listen to them on my computer.
