Hello esteemed radio colleagues.
  
Takoma Radio is an LPFM under construction in NE Washington DC and contiguous Maryland neighborhoods.  Within a year, we will be broadcasting.  We have a lovely subsidized storefront studio space in downtown Takoma Park - empty at this moment :)  We have free antenna/transmitter space high up and very close to the studio. Funding going well. Team strong. Optimism high.  That is our update.

QUESTION: Does anyone have a successful collaboration with a community newspaper?  We are entering a partnership with our local community newspaper - which can no longer afford the paper version - so is online.  We envision them as our “news department.”  They have been around a long time, and there’s plenty of trust and a mutual mission.  Does anyone have advice to make it work better - and advice on how to share a website with an equal partner info organization,  and each maintain our own too.  

Here is a link to Takoma Radio’s little video and online funding.  Please watch the video to see us as we come to life.

Thank you for advice on collaborations and thank you for all the other good information I get from you each and every day.  I rarely post but I always read,
