There are, of course, broad ranges of non-comm stations in the U.S. *Many cater to very specific slices of audience. * Here in the Bay Area, KPFA caters to political activists (or people who think they are political activists). *KCSM-FM caters to jazz listeners. *KPOO is into mostly blues and affairs affecting black people. * KUSF is a training ground for new student DJs and musically caters to them, plus there are blocks of programming catering to Catholicism (KUSF is owned by USF, a Catholic university). KQED-FM appeals to news/info hounds, carrying nearly all the NPR and PRI news and talk programming available. *KALW, an equal member of NPR carries a lot of the rest, along with BBC, CBC, and other news/info programming. KCEA caters to people who prefer to listen to big bands music of the 1930s and 40s. *KVHS, also owned by a high school, reaches out toward teens. * KFJC, KSJS, KSMC, and KZSU do the same thing for college-age audiences. * The one thing that KQED-FM does great is to carry the Audio of the PBS-TV 'News Hour" on the FM Radio at 3PM M~F Listen at Work, or in the Car, and even at Home with No TV needed. IMHO the fastest way to get FM HD-Radio accepted is to find a Local TV Station that will do an Audio Simulcast of their Programming on the HD2 Channel and market the Audio Simulcast on TV. -why- Since TV went Digital the old Analog AM/FM/TV Radios no longer provide TV Audio. FM HD-Radio HD2 Channels can provide TV Audio to an already existing at Work and can Listen {but can't watch} and in the Car and can Listen {but can't watch} TV {radio} Listeners. ~ RHF |
