Exciting times for KUBU and our radio community. Radio Programming Director Shane Carpenter reports this month we now have more than 100 hours of original programming a week. That nearly 14-hours a day every day! Listen to KUBU HERE. New local radio programs this month include: Rafael Chavez, Distorted Nation Radio, Shell-shocked Radio, and "Access Denied." We're also delighted to report joining the National Federation of Community Broadcasters. This powerful organization has excellent resources for helping to build and grow low-power FM stations like ours. Our NFCB membership also opens the door for a discount on the music licensing for our internet stream. Radio producers in the weeks ahead will be getting information on how to report their music play lists as part of our new music licensing requirements.
