SOMAFM Groove Salad is BACK!.

SOMAFM returns to the online airwaves
Popular downbeat-techno online radio station SomaFM is back!

Thanks to everyone's help in writing to congress and encouraging them to
pass HR5469. About 10 days ago, it passed in both the House and Senate. (...)

This weekend, we're launching a new web site, and have now put most of
our core stations back on the air: Groove Salad, Secret Agent, Drone
Zone, Indie Pop Rocks! and Beat Blender. You can get to them from http://somafm.com.
More channels will follow as we rebuild our infrastructure.

We'll still need to come up with about $6500 (hopefully less, the final
rates are not agreed to, but we know that it shouldn't be more than
$6500 for previous years, and $2000 or 12% of our revenues (donations)
going forward. It's still a lot of money for what over the air radio
broadcasters get for free, but we can work with this, and stay in the
air.
