To all our listners who call

Hi and thanks to all the listeners who call. Some of you may be disappointed if you don't get a call back or don't get a request on the air. Here are some reasons:
1. You may have called during a rebroadcast - at this time there is no one in the studio (the magic of technology) .
2. The on-air person is not authorized to get messages from the machine - this is to keep from accidentally deleting other messages.

We are working on better ways to connect with listeners because we WANT to hear from you.
Here are some ways you can have a better shot of getting through:

1. If you are calling into a show, wait until about 30 seconds after a song starts. Before this the DJ might still have headphones on and will be busy setting up the next song. Please don't call while we are speaking on the air, the mic will pick up the ringing.
2. If you don't get an answer, hang up and try in about 5 minutes. Sometimes we have to answer nature's call.
3. If that fails, then leave a message and mention the show and the date (like "Hi, I am calling Nashville Skyline on the 24th with a request" . You don't need to leave a return phone number for most calls unless you have a specific reason for someone to get back to you.
4. Send an e-mail to WAPJFM@SBCGlobal.net We will try to forward this to the right person.

Because of staffing, sometimes calls don't get answered in a timely manner. Don't get discouraged, keep trying.

Thanks
