The 2011 bill to Statewide by our service provider is $108. Our Radio System costs are $1300 per year.

Can I put a larger add on your web site?

Yes, but it will be on a page by itself. Either you or the Statewide webmaster can design the page. Other content unique to this ad/sponsor page made be added, the content to be provided by the advertiser/sponsor.

Our primary mode is to provide the previously described small ad/sponsor notice with a link to your home page. However, we can be flexible.
$50 per year is the fee for an unchanging unique stand alone advertisement page. This $50 is above and beyond the $50 for a Statewide page sponsorship

We would also like to have a small pool of radio equipment available to loan to our members in need for a short term basis.
