Podcast #76 – UMass Station Sale, Unlicensed LPFM in NZ & Archive Nuggets


Listen Later


All hands are on deck for our first show of 2017. First up, Jennifer Waits reports on the planned sale of U Mass-Dartmouth’s WUMD to Rhode Island Public Radio. Then Paul Riismandel shares radio discoveries from his trip to New Zealand, including legal but unlicensed low-power FM stations.

Matthew Lasar wraps things up by sharing some great community radio sound nuggets he’s discovered in the Internet Archive, including Australian garage rock, The Meat Puppets and the 1968 DNC.

As a bonus we close out the show with a bandscan of the FM dial in Christchurch, NZ.
