The FCC is accepting applications for new, low-power, community radio stations the first week of November.
This is huge, you guys, this window rarely opens (the last time was 2013), and as you know, KUZU shows one way LPFM can be a foundation to build valuable community information resources.
The Grassroots Radio folks are holding a conference in West Virginia to help folks out with this.
Please boost and share.

@phwolfe940 @zx3 - We have a ton of these here in Seattle. My local one, KAPY-LP, I can barely get, but has some great stuff playing on it.
@dolari @phwolfe940 @zx3 Where can I find a list of Seattle stations and maybe a map of antenna locations, please?

The FCC website can help with available frequencies for low power licensing

I think a former co-worker volunteers as a newswriter for them. I think low-power FM is full of untapped potential to rebuild local news infrastructure in a healthy, sustainable way
