Default High School student's WAVM vs phony christians

The problem has been major across the upper midwest with these.

R B Schools ('radio broadcast') is by far the most active, with
applications in Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, and most recently, Utah.
They are trying to get share-time agreements forced on small high
school stations. They are from the Fort Worth area, and are said to
have strong religious ties.

The other one is Hoosier Public Radio. They are trying to hijack seven
or more stations near Indianapolis. It's well-known they are involved
with religious broadcasting.

Some of the better school stations are actually managed by veteran
broadcasters who help the students learn the ins and outs of running a
station. At one of the two left in Utah, they have had graduates go on
to get work at major group owners in the area. In fact, I heard that
one of them got a really decent job at KENZ 107.5 (now 101.9) a
well-known alternative station in Utah.

Living Proof owns their own stations, and is said to have just signed
on a Phoenix rimshotter, KCOO 89.9 Coolidge. Haven't confirmed it yet,
but it could be an Air1 station. As far as I know they are not even
remotely involved in the share-time hijack cases at all.
