Listener Line
We installed a Listener Line where people can call and leave stories on voice mail. We just pick the good ones and put them on the air. In the days following 9/11, we received numerous messages, words of care and support, and even poetry. On occasion we call out for stories on a theme connected to where we live, such as hurricane stories, fish recipes, flags, and messages for our sister station Gobi Wave, in Mongolia’s Gobi Desert.
