[Rfu-barnraising] the automation question

[Andy Gunn]

i am still curious what automation package your station has decided to use - no one has responded with that information.  if you are going to have djs on 100% of the time, that is great!  otherwise, you will need something to schedule in program content and station identifications, at least.

we can try out some of the free linux packages if you are worried about the cost of the commerical automation packages.
