For Immediate Release:

Help for the Holidays... From The Classical Station, WCPE

The holidays can be tough at a small public radio station. What do you do when your volunteers are gone and your staff wants time off? Sign off? Pull marathon shifts? Load a CD player and hit "shuffle"?!!

Nights, weekends and holidays -- program your station with WCPE'S Great Classical Music. It's available to you free of charge on the Galaxy 5 satellite. All you need is a standard home C-band satellite dish and receiver. Carrying WCPE does not require you to pay any additional royalties or fees beyond the blanket copyright licenses your station now has in place.

Great Classical Music is an excellent, year-round resource. Use as much as you need, up to continuous programming. Sleepers Awake! from WCPE is a great alternative to costly overnight programs, and your listeners will love weekly features such as The WCPE Opera House and Great Sacred Music.

Even if you air other formats through the day, WCPE's classical music is a wonderful way to reach new listeners in evening or overnight hours.

So don't let the holidays catch you short-handed! Don't let a small staff keep you from broadcasting 24 hours a day! Take advantage of WCPE's free offer, and reap the benefits of sharing Great Classical Music with your listeners!

89.7 FM WCPE is a l00% listener-supported non-profit radio station dedicated to bringing Great Classical Music to everyone 24 hours a day. You can hear our beautiful music on the Internet in RealAudio, Windows Media, QuickTime, Ogg Vorbis and MP3 streaming technologies. Our programming is also available via rebroadcasters, cable systems, and on the Galaxy 5 Satellite, transponder 15, at 5.58 and 6.12 MHz. Owners of 4DTV receivers can listen on G5 958. For more information, call 800-556-5178, or visit us online at www.TheClassicalStation.org.
