Title: W08CK?
Post by: Cheese! on March 29, 2009, 02:16 pm
Anybody know anything about this weird little station? Last Summer I saw it on giving an ID. I heard somewhere that it was owned by some cult from Hawaii. Odd.
 ???

Several years ago they were running alternative programming similar to what the public access station on cable or WORT-FM provides. Did watch a 1 hour ecological program produced by some Wisconsinites. There were cooking shows, some hindu & budhist shows, and commercials. It was run by some non-profit from Hawaii. They did this for a few months and then went off the air. I miss it. :( They must run an ID of sorts every so often to keep their low-power license. There are 2 other low power stations on 23 & 38 mainly running Christian-based programming.
