Tanya,
I don't have that info. Noel or someone else may have. Anyone in
RFU-Membership know?
Since Word UP Radio is also part of this, it also needs to have two
renewed members, whoever they might be.
BTW, this is yet another example where if we had more volunteer input
and help from programming groups, instead of relying on the same few
overworked volunteers to do it all, it might solve many of our issues.
