Most of the above stations receive Pacifica programming via satellite:
Galaxy VI, analog SCPC.  This is the same satellite that carries most
of the NPR programming.

In addition, KZSC 88.1, Santa Cruz, CA carries the KPFA news and some other
programming, via off-the-air pickup.

Also, past Pacifica programs are available from the Pacifica Radio Archive.
A free catalog is available.

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.)
