Last week LSM expanded its Radio network by acquiring four new FM Licenses From the Audio Visual Council (CNA) Which is the equivalent of the FCC in the U.S. The four new cities, Cobadin, Harlau, Negresti, and Sulina expand the LSM Radio Network to 25 Cities in Romania. These cities were chosen for their strategic location. Sulina which will broadcast at 93.6 FM and Cobadin which will broadcast at 103.5 FM are of particular importance because of their location on the Black Sea. Sulina is in the Delta region near the eastern border with Ukraine. This area is known for its natural beauty, one of the few Deltas of its size in the world making it a top tourist area in Romania. Cobadin is also near the Black Sea and a neighboring city to Constanta which is a Romanian "Panama City" or "Daytona Beach." Thousands of young people flock to this area in the summer months. The strategic location of these cities will create an excellent opportunity for spreading the Gospel in the Black Sea area to thousands of locals and tourists who will have access to 24-hour commercial-free Christian Radio. Harlau is in the northeastern area of Romania not far form the border with Moldova where LSM has been operating its 13 FM stations since 1994. Harlau will broadcast at 94.0 FM and along with Suceava which was acquired last year (AM 1584), Radauti (AM 1584) and Piatra Neamt (AM 1602), it will cover much of this northeastern region referred to as the Romanian Moldova. Negresti is in the northwestern part of Romania near the northern boarder with Ukraine. In this region, LSM will broadcast at 94.0 FM along with Sighet which was acquired early in LSM's acquisition process (AM 1584). The importance of this region is that from these two stations, LSM radio will even be heard in Ukrainian cities on the border with Romania. This area known as Bucovina, will now be covered by two stations 24 hours a day commercial-free. We ask for your continued prayer and support to get these new licenses operational and may every sound wave emitted from LSM's network touch lives and renew minds with the life-changing message of the Gospel!
