Starting and Operating Your Own Fm Radio Station: From License Application to Program Management Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It is such a shame that this charming and useful book is out of print. Nothing has ever quite captured the challenges of rewards of community-style radio as this book by Peter Hunn.
When Hunn was struck by the idea of creating his own radio, he assumed there would be books to tell him how to go about it. As anyone in broadcasting will tell you, radio technology sometimes seems like the closely guarded arcana of engineers and corporations. So he wrote this book, a practical and entertaining narrative about building a low-power station, WHRC-FM, for about $40 000.

(More customer reviews)Geller consults some of the World's great talk radio stations from Mexico to Finland. This book summarizes the most effective and proven techniques for talk radio practitioners. The organization of the book is excellent for real-world users as it takes talk radio from theory to implementation.
The most useful sections deal with focusing talent on bringing out the best in their own personalities and "being themselves." The explanations on storytelling and finding the theme within the story are vital for successful radio.

The Radio Producer's Handbook Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you listen to the radio and ever wondered what goes on behind the scenes, this book is for you. The authors provide an often humorous description of the day to day activities that are done to bring the listener must-hear radio. Even the technical chapters were written in a way that somebody like me who has no connection to radio (other than listening) could understand and find interesting. Whether you are in the broadcasting field or just interested in radio, this book is well worth purchasing. The book was enjoyable to read and it gives the reader a new appreciation for what happens behind the scenes to bring the listener a good radio show.
