KWVA, the University'* student-run radio station, t* playing music for lis teners —- but only on the EMU's stereo system. KWVA is poised to begin broadcasting to all of the University and Eugene, but the Federal Com munication Commission's lengthy licensing process is muscling the station. KWVA officials said. Mike Lovelady. KWVA programming director, said the station has met all of the FCC's require ments and must wait for final approval of the sta tion's permit to install its transmission system KWVA expected to get the permit early this month, but the FCC now estimates the station will receive final approval in mid-March. Once the per mit is approved, the station is allowed to begin broadcasting The FCC lias a backlog of new radio station applications, and each application takes several days to process, which has caused the latest delay in KWVA x final approval. Lovelady said "It was a really crushing blow to us when the FCC moved our application back last month,' Lovelady said "We planned to be on the air in February, but all things considered, we'll he broad casting sometime during spring term " KWVA has been trying to get on the air since the 1989-90 school year, when students voted to estab lish a student-run radio station During the past three years, KWVA has spent $100,809 of student money to get the station on the air KWVA has had its problems getting a broadcast license, but the station's application isn't inking any longer than most other stations, said KWVA board member Michael O’Leary. “Even with all the ECC delays, other stations tell us we're ahead of the game." O'Leary said. 1 hex said getting a license in under five years is mirac ulous." However, Larry Stuker of the FCC's Portland Operations Bureau said most now radio stations gel their broadcast license in about two years. KSHL. a new station in Gleneden Beach, goi it's license two years after it began the application process. Stuker said. Comparing the licensing process between com mercial and college radio stations is oflen unfair because most college radio stations have a high turnover of staff, which hinders the licensing process, Stuker said. "The new people have to become acquainted with all of the requirements, which ore stringent and complicated." Stuker said Officials at Eugene radio stations said weaving through the FGC’s maze of regulations and require ments is a rigorous, time-consuming process. Paul Bjornstad. general manager of KWAX. the University's classical music: station, said KWVA's decision to move its antenna from a commercial broadcast tower to the roof of Prince Lucian Camp hell Hall on campus slowed the licensing process KWVA moved the antenna because they could 'Even for the experienced, dealing with the FCC can tea bureaucratic nightmare Ken Martin, KIEL programming directoi noi anoro 10 pay a month for a spot on the commercial tower. Bjorn stad said Filing the new applica tion added about in months to KWVA's pro cessing time, Hjornstod said. "They've done a good job and got it through pretty quick, but starting over with the FCC takes a lot of time." Bjornstad said Ken Martin, program director tor K/.r.U. said the FCC is responsible for all the radio and televi sion broadcast stations in the country, which adds up to a lot of paperwork. "You have to deal with a lot of red tape," Martin said. "Even for the experienced, dealing with the FCC c an l>e a bureaucratic nightmare." Although getting KWVA's license has been a long, hard struggle, Lovelady and O'Leary said they ve enjoyed teaching themselves how to start up a radio station. "Rather than letting someone else do this for us. we've done it ourselves." O'Leary said "We've stumbled, taken the next step forward, and stum bled again, but we've created a radio station." Lovelady said the closed circuit broadcasts in the EMU has helped the KWVA staff get used to programming a radio show and dealing with record companies. During the post three months, record companies have sent KWVA about 500 compact discs, increasing the station's music library to about 1,100 compact discs and records. Lovelady said Now he just wants to begin broadcasting. “When our permit arrives, everybody will hear about it." Lovelady said. "Not just in the EMU. but loud and clear over the air." r* LATE NIGHT i WITH * tSUBWflV* 95* Sub Buy any tub and a beverage after 9 pm and get a sub of equal or lesser value for 95«.
