AFM*Radio has grown and grown, and we now carry about a bazillion programs!
Which is wonderful - we get to listen to lots and lots of very interesting shows from around the world.
But (and you knew there was a "but"), it's takes an incredible amount of my time to get all these shows on the air.
I could use your help. I'm looking for show producers, a person who will take care of (at least) one show - to make sure that the latest edition has been uploaded, to do some light audio editing, and to look after that show's web page.
How would you like to be one of the very first people in the world to hear your favorite program? How would you like to be an important contributor to AFM*Radio sharing astronomy with the World? (And, hey, could you lend me a hand?)
Following are the shows that I need help with, listed alphabetically. I've given each show a rating of 1 through 5; a program with a "1" rating is very easy to be a producer for, and a "5" rating is a show that is fairly complicated to produce. I've also put an asterisk * in front of the name of the shows where I need help first.
Some of the shows require only a few minutes a day (or week, depending on the show), while other programs require a couple of hours a month. We can set you up with whatever fits your interests and your time requirements. (And every little bit helps! Right now I'm responsible for 65 shows; I need some help, please.)
We'll set you up with the software and the training you need, as well as give you credit on-the-air as an AFM program producer.
ALSO, we are looking for a Music Director for AFM*Radio. The Music Director (MD) will help to organize our music library (we have 1000's of songs). Optional, but it would also be wonderful if our MD would work with record companies to set up music service for the station (record companies send music to stations free of charge, in exchange for the possibility of air play). An hour or two a week would be a great help!
Thanks for your help!
