Austin has a couple of community radio stations both wedded to the same frequency (an interesting story). KOOP and KVRX are said stations and the resident experts in this topic are Bob Nagy and Jim Ellinger. There's a slim chance I might get one or both of these two overwhelmed-by-activity individuals to pop some comments in here. No guarantee of anything.

What freq. and what kind of programming?

KOOP celebrated it's second year on the air last week. The enticing Jenny Wong, station manager, is a good friend of my friend Bobs. Their success has been beyond all expectations. First year budget (from an article by John Herndon), was $20,000, between $70-80,000 the second year and will be over $100,000 next year. That's great support! KOOP is at 91.7 FM from 9 am to 7 pm weekdays, 9 am to 10 pm weekends. Phone: 472-KOOP. KVRX is on from 7 pm to 9 am weekdays and 10 pm to 9 am weekends. Phone: 495-KVRX.
