Once a month, I come to you with the hope of keeping the lights on for another month through your financial help. I have THREE DAYS to raise the needed funds.
Below is a screenshot from Amazon Web Services showing my actual charges this month and the projected total given the streaming audio and website traffic:
OTHER EXPENSES:
6 inbound telephone lines from VONAGE: $ 192. a month
NJ Fiber Optics: 187.
NJ Cellular Failover $35
PA-Fiber $69
PA-Cable failover $$99
PA Cellular Failover $69
PA Viasat-1 $247
PA Viasat-2 $167
Adobe Media for Music Licensing $59
WBCQ, WRMI, WWCR radio stations . . . .
This is a large and expensive endeavor; NOT some rinky-dink podcast over the Internet where entities CENSOR what can be said by shutting-down the podcast and deleting the videos.
This is real media. Real radio. FCC Rules and all.
What is NOT INCLUDED above: Two Enterprise-Grade Router/Intrusion-detection/Firewalls at $1500 each that I had to replace in both NJ and PA this month to keep the intruders out. $3,000 in one fell swoop just to prevent the hackers and attackers.
It's expensive to do this, and to do it right. There is no "save $100 here" or "Save $100 there." This is real business, not a hobby, not some blowhard taking to the Internet to spew his ignorance.
I don't do commercials. I don't do clickable ads on this website. I don't sell any products here. Which is why my broadcasts don't deluge you with "buy this (from me)", or "buy that (from me)." Absent deluging you with commercials and ads, I need your help to get this paid for.
I also have to eat and keep a roof over my family's head, just like all of you. So please help out with the expenses.
