Crested Butte Mountain Educational Radio, Inc. (KBUT-FM) has been selected by FCC to receive Construction Permit for Gunnison Transmitter
On June 28, 2010, KBUT-FM received notification that its parent organization, Crested Butte Mountain Educational Radio, Inc., was selected by the FCC as the proposed recipient of a Construction Permit for a full power transmitter to replace its translator in Gunnison. This will mean that KBUT-FM will be able to build a new transmitter facility that will provide a stronger signal and HD signal to our listeners in Gunnison. This notification is only the first step in a long process that began with the submission of an application to the FCC in October of 2007. Going forward, if there is not a protest to the FCC's decision, KBUT will be issued a new Construction Permit. Crested Butte Mountain Educational Radio, Inc. will then begin to raise the required funds ($150,000 to $200,000) for construction of the transmitter. Under FCC regulations, we have three years from the issuance of the Construction Permit to complete the installation. Stay tuned for more on this exciting event.

KBUT-FM HD Radio is on the Air
On Saturday, June 5th at 11:45am during Lynda Jackson's "The FIner Things", KBUT-FM started transmitting on its new transmitter on Sunlight Ridge in Mt. Crested Butte. With the powering up of the new equipment, we are broadcasting in analog and now digital formats. If you have a HD-capable radio you will be able to hear our broadcasts at higher clarity and cleaner sound. In addition, if your radio has RDS capability you will see our call sign displayed instead of just our frequency. In the future, we will also use this feature to send information to you via the RDS display.
As always, if you have questions please call me at any time.
Dave Clayton General Manager, KBUT-FM |
