Dial Dress Watch
On Monday, WBSR, A Community / Student-Run Station Subsidized By Brown School, Loses Its Signal, Its Spot On The FM Dial Though Not, Its Staff Hopes, Its Listeners.
But on Monday, WBSR, a community / student-run station backed by Brown College, loses its signal, its spot on the FM dial but not, its staff hopes, its listeners.
“We are still a college radio station,” said Ryan Lester, a senior at Brown and BSR’s managing director. “That’s whether we have a terrestrial signal or not.”
After fourteen years of leasing broadcast time from WELH (88.1), BSR becomes a terrestrial-signal have-not.
2 weeks back, BSR learned its broadcasting lease, which ends July 31, will not be replenished.
Last year, Wheeler College, owners of WELH, increased the station’s wattage to four thousand from 150 permitting statewide broadcasting, according to Laurie Flynn, the school’s communications director, and modified the station’s plans. Flynn said Wheeler will make “big” changes at its station, although will not disclose them for a minimum of a week.
“It will be great for Rhode Island,” Flynn related. “We are terribly pumped up about what we are about to announce.”
The people at BSR 65 scholars and 35 non-students are not as pumped up about the news .
“We were definitely a little disappointed,” claimed John Foley, BSR’s co-publicity director.
When the disenchantment went away, BSR staffers made an approach adjustment, deciding to turn lemons into well-known lemonade, investing their energy on the web.
“This is a gigantic opportunity for us to make progress in the net world and be countrywide leader,” Foley said.
BSR has been online (www.bsrlive.com/) for a few years. Now, it’ll be completely online as it loses its nine p.m.-to-3 a.m. Broadcast slot on WELH.
Being without a standard “terrestrial” signal, Lester said, is a loss.
“People can hit your number at random,” he said. “It’s a bit more tricky with the Internet.”
But having a strong Internet presence, Lester expounded, is critical. WELH’s leasing call, Lester said, has given BSR impetus, or maybe unexpected requirement, to aggressively pursue a more robust Net presence.
“We might be in a position to build a great Web and rock radio stations for ourselves,” Lester announced. “But building a great Web radio platform for varsity radio is a goal.”
In the year, Foley said, 1 or 2 college radio stations have lost their license, largely as the colleges sold them. BSR did not own a license, but leased time on the market, and, in the case of the new WELH lease, could not compete.
WELH received applications to lease airtime from several organizations, including BSR, Foley claimed.
“We’re well deep set in the community,” Foley claimed. “Ultimately, I would need to think the call came down to a financial matter.”
Foley would not divulge how much BSR paid for its lease last year and how much it offered for next year.
BSR is a free-form station with eclectic programming from rock to hiphop to Cape Verdean. Its roots return to the Brown Radio Network, established in 1936, that also spawned WBRU, a 20,000-watt FM station that’s independent of the college, and terrestrial.
BSR would still welcome a lease with an earthly radio station, if one presents itself. Foley expounded, “there are not a lot of options.”
So for the moment, Lester claimed, BSR may continue to offer music and talk radio, though not on the radio.
“Taking away the terrestrial signal does not take away what makes BSR BSR.” as reported tagza.com.
