Because we are a failing nation due to politics and people are dead over it to kill an independent public broadcaster like Las Vegas Public Radio and KIOF, the Telecommunications Act of 1934 failed to serve Las Vegas Public Radio and KIOF 90.1 FM as a noncommercial "educational" (NCE) broadcaster on Pages 201 and 202 in SEC. 393. [47 U.S.C. 393] CRITERIA FOR APPROVAL AND EXPENDITURES BY SECRETARY OF COMMERCE. (c) Of the sums appropriated pursuant to section 391 for any fiscal year, a substantial amount shall be available for the expansion and development of noncommercial radio broadcast station facilities.
Las Vegas Public Radio and KIOF 90.1 FM begins it's transformational pivot to commercial broadcasting for 2025 by executing 47 C.F.R Section 73.1690(c)(9) Modification of Transmission Systems within the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Rules and Regulations which allows "educational" broadcasters to pivot to commercial operations through waiver. Las Vegas Public Radio executed 47 C.F.R Section 73.1690(c)(9) Modification of Transmission Systems on December 31, 2024 through an Administrative Update to begin the processes to move KIOF and Las Vegas Public Radio over to commercial broadcasting.
The last day Las Vegas Public Radio to be a noncommercial "educational" NCE will be June 1, 2025 or sooner pending FCC action so the orderly winddown of LVPR as a 501(c)3 nonprofit business can begin. Either way, the organization will shutdown entirely to meet Nevada State, County/U.S. Government officials actions/inactions playing politics, killing people to cancel LVPR as an NCE and even jailing the heads of NCE broadcasters here in southern Nevada seen across documents within FCC Facility ID’s 190166 & 766038.
In the mean time, please keep your donations/contributions coming to our tax exempt 501(c)3 nonprofit business to assist with the transformational pivot to commercial broadcasting and orderly shutdown of the organization per Nevada State, County/U.S. Government officials. |
