Terry Shanley, CEO of SMART, stated that “We have a tremendous amount of community resources available to us, what we need is something to communicate and bring us together. The Sarnoff Channel may just be that vehicle”. We couldn’t agree with you more Terry!
“We are entering a new age. The first decade of this century was devoted to the Internet coming of age. The next ten years will see the maturation of the mobile Internet”. That means, content everywhere. Cell phones, cars, airports, laptops, IPODS, IPADS, and who knows what else will come to market in the years ahead. Peggy La Point, LSMF Secretary
“The Sarnoff Channel is a worldwide internet radio station. Our goal is to play uninterrupted music, with sponsor mentions every hour providing the funding for the Channel and our Charities”. Joe Palanuk, LSMF President
