I think we should continue to support, continue to let our voices be heard, and maybe this area will understand the impact the stations had. Whether we never hear those stations again or not, ERIE needs to know what ERIE is lacking. In order for that to happen, ERIE needs to LISTEN....

(89.5/90.1)provided a Non-Profit Service to there community without the interferrence to any other Radio Stations Transmittion. These Stations provided our community with Information, News,Positive Messages as well as instructons that would help to Up-Lift Our Community with the help of the magnitic atraction of Urban Music (Hip-Hop, R&B and Gospel). Yes, these people as you say, Took a stand to do for themselve's and there community that which you would have never done Mr. PR and Others that would welcome and rejoice in the shut down of these so-called Pirates. You act as if you are the God of Media,News and Commentary, take a look in the Mirror, You might see a Slinking Devil to yourself and others. It's good to know that you don't have the last say. And for those of you that would say "Don’t like the laws…get them changed…otherwise obey them" We'll we fill the same way about you when you and your friends,after having a few Beers and or Drinks,then you jump in your cars and drive, or when your seen supporting the Local Prositute or Urban Drug Dealer behind closed doors, You also should be placed behind Bars because the fine you are "ABLE" and "WIL" pay. Not trying to be so personal, but personally I feel that these stations (89.5,90.1) are an Asset To Our Community, yes OUR COMMUNITY. WoW, "Great example for the community" we see the Great example you have been (A Great Failure). I don't believe you can tell us anything you have or currently doing for the betterment of this community. You talk as if you are a PRIVATEER- acting while in the possession of a commission or a "Letter of Marque" from another Radio Station authorizing the capture and ruin of other Urban Stations that cater to their Own.

They were a platform for so many people who otherwise do not have that platform. They were highly active in the community and a positive force that was something different, something wanted. And it was a great way to showcase and support local talent. Maybe thats the "real" problem. Urban stations doing good in the community. I personally will miss the stations. And just the thought of going from those stations to Star, Classy, Froggy... etc makes me not want to turn on the radio.

Nobody is putting down people of ethnic diversity here, but the law is there for a reason, and these people were going against the law, regardless of the service they were providing. It was illegal, and therefore, rightly shut down.
