Since receiving our construction permit on Feb.6, I have kicked into high gear to get the station built. The studios are
coming along nicely, with the control room near completion. Wiring of the production studio is nearly done, with the layout
of this area next on the list.
Fundraising also is continuing as we work to reach our $6k goal. This is to help
with the costs of the transmitter, antenna, EAS, and tower. The tower itself is funded, but not the cost of parts and installation.
I am setting a goal of June 15 for signing
the LPFM on the air.
If
you can help, please call me at (850) 877-4641 or email alanmccal@hotmail.com.
Thank you for your support.
During the month of February we received donations totaling $1,029. One of our donors got things off to a good start by
donating $500!
At this point we have acquired through contributions or purchase our building, the majority of the studio
control room equipment, most of the production room equipment, an EdenPure heater for the building, an AC unit, kitchenette
equipment and shelving for the music library.
Still needed are the transmitter and antenna (about $4400), a 170 foot tower (estimates vary), and
an EAS CAP compliant box ($2500).These are the must-have items.
Our primary computer needs updating. Our default
computer and the hard drive with a back-up music library and automation will total arou d $3000. This is for our authorized
24 hour operation.
If you can help, please make a contribution to Delta Star Radio, 2625 Doll Place, Tallahassee, FL
32311. All contributions go to the construction of WDXD-LP.
Thank you! Let's buikd a new radio station!
