[Kzyxtalk] Interesting?

[sako4 at comcast.net]

And that, my good man, is one of the few really essential reasons that salaried staff is here for -- to help volunteers. It's my further opinion that shows should be engineered by a staff member, if that's the volunteer programmer's preference. And shows -- particularly public affairs shows -- should be archived, as they are at KQED, even KMUD.. It what salaried staff does. Help volunteers. That help, and to keep equipment working and upgraded. All else is secondary. 


In your arrogance, please don't forget that fact. 


Reading listservs and commenting on listservs, as you are doing now, is not essential.

It’s interesting how some people who have been programmers for four or five years or more still cannot get themselves on the air without help from staff. 



It’s interesting how some people who have been programmers for four or five years and still cannot get themselves on the air without help speak with authority about how best to get a program from a studio to the listener. 



It’s interesting how some people who have been programmers for four or five years or more still cannot get their archived programs onto the station’s website without help. 



It’s interesting how some people who have been programmers for four or five years or more continue to reminisce about the good old days when they broadcast a program via an internet hookup that worked so well; yet it really didn’t, since it had so much buffering and so many dropouts, it was unlistenable. 



It’s interesting that if you can’t get yourself on the air, you have no background in broadcast engineering, you cannot prepare a program for the archive, and you cannot remember that the program they used to send via the internet was of pitiful broadcast quality . . . it’s interesting how anyone like that can bloviate about anything.
