From IMF (International Missions Fellowship) website:
http://www.imfworldmissions.org/?page_id=45
Our direction in Radio ministry here at IMF is simply an extension of our vision to reach remote areas of the world with the Gospel, to bring them the Full Gospel and End Time Message of the soon coming of the Lord. We are a Missionary/Evangelistic and Church Planting ministry, but radio is one of the tools we have been given to help accomplish this vision. We are busy building a network of primarily AM and International Shortwave stations. We use this medium because AM and Shortwave Frequencies reach over mountains, into valleys, up long rivers, and into remote jungles and villages where unreached or under evangelized people live. We can be heard world-wide by those with shortwave receivers (there is more than 1 Billion Shortwave Receivers in the world), but we also want to provide fixed tuned handheld solar powered receivers which can be given or dropped into remote villages so they can hear the Gospel and be discipled by the teaching. Every person in the world must hear the end-time message of “Get ready for the coming of the Lord” and Revival!
We have built radio stations in Honduras (www.radiomi.com), Central America (Radio MI on AM, Shortwave, and the web. They are heard locally in Central America and in many other nations. IMF helped build this station many years ago.
In the USA we have purchased a property near Battle Mountain, NV where we are working to build a powerful Shortwave Station which will be beamed at Mexico and Asia. It can be heard also in North America. We plan to build more stations after this. We have also just built a radio control center and small studio in Corona, CA to send programs to these transmitters via satellite/internet. It is now in operation.

Good enough, just as long as they don't broadcast Brother Stier...
Can You say blechhhh

I don't think Brother Stair can abide an American SWBC station that isn't carrying his voice. He'd probably offer to record the time messages for WWV just to be on that transmitter as well.
-
Philip Stair will jump on this opportunity as soon as its available.
hes been looking for a station on the west coast to preach his spoken doomsday words.

And let the brainwashing and self-hating begin!

...self hating? Well beat myself with a sardine...
Oh BTW... pass the 151 rum OK?
Praise Bob and pass the bottle...

I say power to them, if they can pull it off. HF airwaves are getting more and more vacant by the year. Someone may as well be using them. Nothing else can seem to sustain itself monetarily anymore -- sad but true (pirate stations excerpted, of course).
Looks like these broadcasts will be in Spanish. I've heard of the single channel, solar powered radios. Some missionary organization distributes them in South America.
-
Wait!!! I just figured out that Brother Stair doesn't speak Spanish... So why can't I understand a damned word he says? Must be the BS filters inside my head are working properly.... Yeahhhhh!! Works for me folks...
I love it when a plan comes together!!! ::)
BS filters work for me so everyone should have one installed! Get inside your head... :P
Later all.
Have a good day and a better tomorrow!

I've heard of those so-called fixed frequency radios distributed by certain missionary groups. Frankly, that infuriates the heck out of me. Way to hold intended converts unfairly in thrall. Yecch! If I had the resources and the know-how, I'd happily assist in the un-fixing of a few fixed frequency receivers, if the owners of same so desired. Gah, the injustice wrapped in faux righteousness of that one really gets up my schnoz!
As for Brother Scare/Stair, BS filters+missing chompers=one impossible to understand hatemonger. Smirk!

Fixed frequency radios? Gahhhhh!
Time to proto a tunable frequency converter for those things...
-
When I first heard of the fixed frequency radios I thought to myself: 'what happens when the station goes off the air, or changes frequency?'
The radios look like a small transistor with solar panel on the back, and they have a USB, presumably used for programming frequencies, and the radios have nine programmable stations. Looks like a small radio with no dial, just a couple buttons on the front. Probably has a SiLabs chip inside.
It looks like some religious stations in third world countries give them out to their listeners for free so people can listen to their station in areas with marginal or non-existent electric power.

what a clever way to corner the "market".
"listen to us or listen to nothing"

ER... yes, and no.
They're the ones spending money on the radios and giving them out for free. I would think they have a right to have the single channel installed if they so want.
It's no different than handing out free religious tracts. Just a high tech version. If the recipient doesn't like it, they can always throw it away.
I would think that in many of these countries there are plenty of transistor radios available for people to listen to other stations if they want.

Interesting, as long as Brother Scare doesn't brainwash us with his ranting i will listen to this station..

Too bad that F isn't a P

That would be pucking awesome.

I just noticed that the radio station mentioned in the article is KIMF and not KIFM as stated in the thread subject....hmmm, then what is a KIMP?
Here is the definition of a KIMF... http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=kimf
And a KIMP is... http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=kimp

Sorry for the typo! ;D
