PAS : KE ARAH PEMERINTAHAN ISLAM YANG ADIL

NEW RADIO STATIONS COULD BE USED FOR DAWAH
Low power FM stations available to Islamic centers and Muslim orgs.
(WASHINGTON, DC, 3/28/2000) - The FCC (Federal Communications Commission) is
going ahead with plans to license new "low-power" FM radio stations
nationwide. In January, the commission voted to grant licenses for stations
operating at 100 watts or less that can reach audiences within a radius of
3.5 miles.
Low-power stations are being promoted to increase the diversity of voices in
radio programming and are designed to be used by community groups, Islamic
centers, educational associations and other nonprofit organizations to
create non-commercial broadcast outlets. This decision provides a good dawah
opportunity for local Muslim communities.
Following an FCC drawing yesterday, it was announced that applicants from
Alaska, California, the District of Columbia, Georgia, Indiana, Louisiana,
Maine, Mariana Islands, Maryland, Oklahoma, Rhode Island and Utah will be
the first localities allowed to apply in late May for low-power radio
licenses. Four other groups of localities will be chosen in the next 14
months.
IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUESTED:
Visit the FCC's site dealing with the issue of low-power radio stations. Go
to:
http://www.fcc.gov/mmb/prd/lpfm/ and
http://www.fcc.gov/mmb/prd/lpfm/lpfmfaq.html
Those without access to the Internet may call the FCC at 1-888-CALL-FCC to
receive licensing information.
Basic low-power FM transmitting equipment is modestly priced. (An Islamic
center could go on the air for less than $1,500.) Information on the
availability and costs of radio equipment is available from a variety of
sources on the Internet and electronics periodicals. Educate yourself about
this opportunity by visiting sites such as: (Note - When you visit the
following sites, keep in mind that until the recent FCC decision to permit
low-power FM transmitters, these stations were regarded as "pirate" radio.)
