Unreferenced text[edit]

The article said "Currently, the station threatens to lose its broadcasting license due to broadcasting at a lower wattage than their FCC charter. However, steps are currently being taken to rectify this discrepancy." I could find nothing at either the FCC licensing info for the station or the station's website to confirm this claim. The stations website does say that they are trying to increase their licensing from 4 kilowatt to 20 kilowatt, but this is a far cry from "losing their license because of not broadcasting with enout power." Please provide a reliable source for the claim before moving it back to the article. Edison 22:51, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Iwantmyklpi" website and the techtalk archive state they are broadcasting at 10 to 20 watts, but do not actually say that the station never had the required power level. The newspaper links do not work, so the sourcing is not really what WP:ATT looks for. It is surprising there is nothing about the failure to comply with the license over a period of decades in the FCC file. I restored the text about low power operation to the article. Someone whoc cached a copy of the newspaper articles while they were online might add some informative info to the article. They could always go internet only. But as is, if the are running 10 watts on a frequency set aside for 4000 watt operation, they are tieing up a frequency that a valid broadcasting operation could put to better use.

I've removed the entire paragraph. The article doesn't begin to meet the criteria for a reliable source. At best, it is a two year old self-published article by the University. At worst, it is a homework assigment by a student. Who is the author and what editorial fact-checking process did the story go through before publication? Since the allegation is that the station is not in compliance with FCC their license, such a claim needs a reliable independent source. By the way, the talk page is to talk about the content of the article, not FCC licensing policies.StreamingRadioGuide (talk) 20:15, 27 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"Official" Web site[edit]

The "Official" web site linked to is in a directory on the server called "testsite" and begins by saying it is "Under Construction" from October 2010, typical for a college station that starts up in the fall and the students don't finish what they start. There isn't really a point to removing it, but say around October 2011 someone might want to check for an update.108.82.248.203 (talk) 04:39, 26 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
