One afternoon this month, I sampled a low-power, out-of-town station that presented newscasts and programs from an international perspective. I liked the concept of the station but wondered how long it would survive, as a counter on the station's website never exceeded four listeners during the time I heard it.
"It's fun to be part of such a small group listening to this station," I thought. "Then again, there are pitfalls to running a station that only draws a small audience."
Here's hoping the station survives somehow. It's a not a good sign, however, that I've already forgotten the station's call letters and city.
