Nebraska Church Works to Establish Radio Station in Lincoln

radio towerLINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Members of a Lincoln church are working to establish a nonprofit radio station that could benefit refugees, prisoners and others whose voices are seldom heard.

Nik Sandman is preparing to launch the station on behalf of Good Shepherd Lutheran Church.

The Good Shepherd station will operate at 95.7 FM and will be called 95.7 The Cross. Its call letters will be KNNA, short for koinonia, the Greek word for community.

Sandman says the station will likely need $75,000 to $100,000 to launch, and will need to raise money annually to pay for its operation. He says he doesn’t plan to broadcast commercial advertising and likely will allow seek underwriters for programs.
