FTIOM and UBMP to discontinue broadcasts from Germany, Bulgaria |
|
Tuesday, February 08 2022
Dear radio colleagues,I began From The Isle of Music six years ago and Uncle Bill's Melting Pot five years ago, starting small on WBCQ and eventually expanding to Europe and beyond with Channel 292 for both programs and Space Line for FTIOM. I am not a wealthy man, and my programs have been literally 99.9% self-funded during that period. The very small handful of contributors has been appreciated but has never been large enough to put a dent in costs.
Over the past two years, my living expenses have increased precipitously while my income and contributions have not. With great reluctance, I must make some difficult financial decisions. One of them is that broadcasts on Space Line will cease March 6, and broadcasts on Channel 292 will cease March 5. This is a purely financial decision, I have very much enjoyed working with both stations and will deeply miss the audiences that I will probably lose. While the financial support was minimal, the emotional support has been huge, many of those listeners feel like family now.
Broadcasts will continue on WBCQ The Planet where these programs began. FTIOM will continue on 7490 kHz, currently Tuesdays 0000-0100 UTC, and UBMP will continue on 7490 kHz Sundays, currently 2300-0000 UTC. Both of these livestream on WBCQ.com, so listeners unable to catch the terrestrial broadcast (or who are asleep at those hours) may be able to record live for later listening. Both programs will also be part of the new special lineup on 4790 kHz which is being sponsored by Angela and Allan Weiner. More details about that will be forthcoming, that frequency may reach parts of Europe terrestrially as an early morning show at a tolerable hour.
Thank you so much for the support you have given over the years, and I hope these admittedly-major changes will not render me uninteresting to you in the future. This has been the time of my life, and I will do my best to continue in that spirit.
