Thanks for the support. I guess a first beef was that a
commercial station was taking up all the upper part of the LPFM which was
frustrating..
We need 24x7 updates to our users to sharing was not available. We have to
look at satellite now as its cheaper than a commercial FM licensee.

Prolly is over for newcomers sorry to say Jason.
Suggestion..
If they are boat-safety related, maybe talk to 'the flea 88.2' which broadcasts from the Devonport wharf? They also seem to have good coverage and might consider such safety announcements as a community service. Infact, perhaps you could aim the messages as a service to any Auckland LPFM station willing to give it airtime as a community service?
Just a thought..
