I understand MBC is applying for a license to operate an FM Radio Station that will be serving the community of Scarborough.

I support MBC and this application for an FM Radio license to serve Scarborough.

Seeing all these names show up on the list makes me think back to when we were just talking about this in the coffee shop, and honestly it feels like a dream that this is actually gaining real legs now. It is wild to imagine how much better the airwaves in Scarborough will be once we have this programming, and I am just so happy that all of you keep jumping on board to make it happen.

The list for Scarborough is growing and honestly it is so wild to see everyone coming together like this because we really need this station to get off the ground. If we can hit that hundred mark before I send this over to the Commission it will show them exactly how much this community is ready for real local radio. Just grab someone else today and get them to add their name because that push is going to make all the difference for our application.
