Today I heard the station played hip hop and R&B and then it played a soft rock song. The station has
changed its format to Top 40. I am glad to see the change from Chinese music to Top 40. Some
people were believing that the station was going to be a Classic Rock format, but now its a Top 40
station. Thanks for your support and understand for a weird unusual format to something people can
listen to and understand.

This is what needs to be done in your town. Get others to sign petitions in order to put fourth ballot initiatives. Showing up to a rally can only go so far. Passing laws that defy the Fed government is the only way to make it and others pay attention to you and your cause. If the idea is good other towns will follow.

And we will be doing things in recording music such as recording music from the FM radio on a cassette tape and also dubbing cassettes. We will see CD…
