- KPFA has just started a satellite uplink of its programs on Ku band on
- GE Americom K1 TR7 (H) 11887.900 MHz using Musicam compressed digital
- stereo (128 KBPS, QPSK). This service initially is to feed KFCF in Fresno
- with an improved signal. (Approx 90% of KFCF programming is a relay of KPFA.)
-
- These satellite signals can be heard by anyone in the continental US with the
- proper equipment. Any stations that wish to carry Pacifica programming, please
- contact Pacifica Foundation, 1929 Martin Luther King Jr Way, Berkeley, CA
- 94704, 1-510-848-6767. (This is also the number and address for KPFA.)
