A Personal Message to Potential LPFM
Applicants:
Dear Potential Future LPFM Applicant;
Our LPFM
application preparation services include: frequency search, e-filing
your application, any technical adjustments, equipment recommendations
and helping you file for the final license to broadcast are all
included in our "budget priced" service. The "early-bird"
rate is only $1,450.00, but if you wait to contact us until
three weeks before the filing deadline, the rate changes to $1,950.00. If you
contact us within one week of the filing window the rates
double and during the filing window, you either will be
out of luck, or find that our rates have doubled yet again. All services are
PAID IN ADVANCE! We take all major credit cards, you may do a bank transfer
or use PayPal! Because of a few "flakes" who have promised to pay after
filing in the past and did not, no future work will be performed without
full
payment in advance.
Why do we take this
approach? We take pride in offering the you the absolute best service for a very fair
price and we would welcome you as our customer. If you
wait until the last minute to work with us, the quality time that we need
to devote to you just isn't available and, quite honestly, if we're not going to
be allowed the chance to do the very best work possible, we'd rather not do it
at all.
Please, if you are
considering filing for an LPFM anywhere in the country and
an FCC "Catch-All" window does become available, call now and let us
put you on a preferred clients list. You will be notified
when, and if the opportunity presents itself to prepare
more LPFM applications.
Call
our business office at (225) 774-6246 or e-mail us by
clicking
here and DO NOT MODIFY THE SUBJECT OF THE MESSAGE!!!. (This is
how we're cutting down on receiving unwanted "trash" e-mail. We're
pre-formatting messages and filtering out anything that doesn't "fit the
bill"...)
We
look forward to serving you in your LPFM quest.

Important
Information About Your LPFM Construction Permit
|
|
Help
Us Repeal the Telecommunications (Public Rape) Act of 1996!
|
|
If someone else has already quoted you on
an LPFM installation, whether turnkey or partial, contact us with
written proof of their offer and we WILL beat their price
(with a comparable installation and more professional, more friendly
service). Guaranteed!
Now, that being said, here is what you
will not find us offering:
-
An "under $400" transmitter.
-
An "under $100" antenna.
-
An "under $100" audio
console.
-
An "under $5,000" complete
turnkey station installation.
We do not and will not sell you a
"toy" FM station. We will only provide you with professional
equipment and professional installation, alignment and maintenance. We
will not help you build a "cheap" FM station. This is a very
serious business and, if you're not prepared to properly set up your
station, you should seriously consider very respectfully asking the
Federal Communications Commission to dismiss your application. If we
needed more "cheap" FM stations on the air, we'd be promoting
more corporate buyouts, right?

Dear Potential LPFM Applicant;
This past
week, we were as busy as a one-legged man at a butt kickin' contest!
We made it through the
combined filing window! Now, that it's over, we'd like to re-iterate
something that we've been preaching for many long months: In all
future filing windows, it is imperative that all important
information be submitted before the filing window opens.
Churches, Schools, Ministries,
Civic Groups, Public Safety Organizations:
You can own and operate your own community,
LPFM radio station!
The Federal Communications Commission
will soon be accepting more applications for LPFM or Low Power FM radio
community broadcast stations. MonsterFM.com/Broadcast Services
Consulting provides affordable assistance to churches, schools,
civic groups, non-profit organizations, and governmental entities, as
prospective applicants, in obtaining needed engineering assistance for
preparing and filing LPFM applications with the Federal Communications
Commission.
The fourth and fifth filing windows
have now passed but, our inside sources at the FCC say that soon, the entire
country will be eligible to
apply during a filing window specially designed for those who missed their
first oppurtunity. These applicants will only be allowed five
business days during which to submit a flawless application. Any mistakes
at all will severely jeopardize the acceptability of your application. You
DON'T want to risk this!!!
If you are interested in
having an LPFM application completed for you (well in advance), you must call
1-888-830-8223 right now and talk with Ron Erickson at EBS. He will assist you, leaving
us free to perform the required searches and RF allocation studies.
We are preparing a full
update of this LPFM site and should have all new information available
within then next few days.
Thank you very much,
Blah Blah Blah....

Who
is MonsterFM.com/Broadcast Services?
Shortly
after the FCC announced its LPFM Notice
of Proposed Rule Making on
January 20, 1999, MonsterFM.com (through, a site hosted on a "free"
server) was founded to help any Christian organization, civic group and/or
community group to start their own LPFM stations. We assist these groups
from the initial planning stage and even beyond the beginning of daily
broadcasting. We plan to assist you through the construction of and well beyond
the beginning of operations of your LPFM station.
The founders of MonsterFM.com have more than a twenty three (23) years of
experience in building and operating radio and television stations ranging from
low power through full-power top market stations serving millions of people.
Our expertise also encompasses internet web design and PC operations. We are an
ever expanding network of professional broadcast engineers with branch offices
in several states. We are adding more branches as more qualified engineers
become available.
You may
have already done
some
extensive preliminary
planning but now it's time for you to actually raise the necessary money, answer
any and all remaining questions, begin to purchase and install equipment, make
final programming decisions, find and train your staff, and (finally) begin your
daily operations. We would sincerely like to help you in reaching this goal.


The first 25 of you should have already
received your construction permit in the mail.
This means that you now have our
wonderful government's permission to begin the actual construction of an FM
radio station. The sooner you complete this part of the process, the sooner
you can apply for your "license to cover" and actually begin
broadcasting! (Yes, there is still another "application process"
that you must go through before you can actually begin broadcasting! I bet
your "other" engineer didn't tell you that! If he did, you've
found a rare gem!)
If you're somewhat confused or just
plainly dazed and shocked by the fact that you've actually made it this far,
feel free to contact us and allow us to assist you in the procurement of
equipment and, if needed, in the actual construction of your new station.
With our national branches, which are
spread across the entire country, we can guarantee you that we'll be able to
provide a better and faster service (more "custom tailored" to
your individual situation) at a better and lower price. Or, in the worst
possible case, we can definitely provide a better and faster service (more
"custom tailored" to your individual situation) at the same price.
There are many engineers out there that
are actually employed by large corporate stations. These engineers are also
under orders to "do as much damage to LPFM as possible!" (I know!
I've been there!) So, the question becomes one of "Who can we
trust?" And, this is a good question, indeed.
Also, there are many hidden ways that you can
save on equipment purchases and installation. However, (depending upon whom
you have retained for this phase of the project) you may never find out
about these potential savings until AFTER it's too late to take advantage of
them. Bottom line: To inform you of these saving would add a marginal amount
of work to the construction of your station and most engineers - rightfully
- don't feel that they should have to perform additional work and research
in order to save a "small" client that extra $5,000 or so...
Before you sign away many thousands of
dollars of your hard earned money, contact us and let's discuss the many
ways that we can save you some money.

days (approximately) until the opening of the remediation
window. This
window will be the time for the filing of major amendments to LPFM
applications. Minor amendments must be filed before the opening of this
window.

days (approximately) until our deadline for
accepting applications for filing in the remediation window.
NOTICE:
Due to an over 80%
default rate in application preparation fees, we will no longer be doing any work
beyond a preliminary frequency search until each client has (at the very least)
set up a payment schedule and demonstrated that they are willing to, at least try
to make payment in full before the opening date of any filing
window...

Due to an extremely
overbooked filing window (which has been DOUBLED by the FCC) coupled with an over 80% default rate by LPFM
applicants, we will only be accepting "pre-approved" LPFM applicants as clients after
the closing of window number four. We will continue to update the LPFM portion
of our web site but, we will no longer be providing services beyond a basic
supply of information to a majority of prospective LPFM applicants.
