Alright..Here's My Plan...

Now that I've had a chance to think things through regarding all the RIAA/CRB/royalty rates mess, here is my survival plan:

Once the price hikes are released to us by Live365, I'll have (sort of) an idea of what it will cost to continue the operation of WJJD's streaming operation. Thus, I will determine the cost for operating the station for a.) one month and b.) one year.

Next, I will get quotes for the cost of rebuilding and replacing my Part-15 AM transmitter. I
will also plan to move the entire radio station next door. I will likely try to obtain a transmitter that will run legally at both Part-15 and legal licensed low power AM levels, so that purchase of a new box will not be necessary twice (in the event LPAM is ever passed.)

Whichever station costs less to operate..wins. Period. It's tough toodles to the loser.

I'm sending out a request for quotes next week for the LPAM stuff.

When I was in high school, Dad had an idea (that we never actually followed through with) of building an earthworm farm. That idea might be better than ANYTHING involving radio
these days.
