staffing

Neil, definitely bring your friend in to talk to us. I have emailed both of Towson's radio stations, WTMD of course, but also XTSR which seems to more student-run. No word back from either.

also I have a portable radio that I'm fitting up to play audio through on multiple stations, so we could get that authentic scratchy-knob radio feel in-between segments, like if you were tuning in to different channels. I was thinking that if anything internet radio will lack it's the hiss and crackle of a real radio and the feeling of turning the knob and finding another station. When you listen to the internet i guess it's just one station and there aren't any unknowns, which is the really great thing about real radio, that you can tune in to a different station at any time.

program director

Hey guys,

I was talking to a friend last night and found out he has been the program manager for College Park's radio station WMUC for a while.

I thought it would be really perfect for him to come in an give us a little talk. He said he could give us a run down of each and every position necessary for running a station (internet based or radio based) and could definitely help us write a great proposal. He put together some 40 + pages for their proposal.

They broadcast regularly on 88.1 and share the station with WYPR occasionally when out of their range.

here is the link to their website:

I think we could definitely use some outside help on this one, but maybe that's just me. Any thoughts?
