Beginner-friendly advice on how to start and run a local FM station

There are approximately 2000 low power FM radio stations in the United States. That number will grow as more licenses are issued in the coming years. Low Power FM For Dummies walks you through the key steps you need to take to establish, manage, and help run one of these hyper-local broadcast operations. You’ll get easy-to-follow help on everything from making all your gear work to financing your operation, managing your staff, and complying with rules and regulations.

Not sure where to begin? No worries! This book explains the process of getting a broadcast license and collecting all the necessary tools. It also provides insight on starting with a station that streams online only. Already got started? That’s great too! You’ll learn to refine your approach to low-power FM station management with the useful tips found within. Low Power FM For Dummies will also help you:

Serve your community at a hyper-local level with programming aimed directly at the people in your area Manage the people, technology, processes, and systems that underlie a well-run low-power FM station Guide the operations of a new or established station as a volunteer, board member, or creator

Low-power radio stations need well-informed and effective operators, technicians, board members, and volunteers to fulfil their potential. Low Power FM For Dummies can help you fill any of those roles, and more, in no time at all.
