Coast Community Radio Receives Major Equipment Grant from MJ Murdock Charitable Trust for immediate release april 15, 2020
C
oast community radio (ccr), the nonprofit radio station in the Columbia-Pacific region, has received a major grant from M.J. Murdock Charitable Trust. The trust awarded CCR $120,000 over three years for the major equipment and facilities overhaul dubbed “Radio For Good” (RFG). This grant is the cornerstone funding for the three year plan to repair, replace, and update all of our broadcast equipment from microphone to transmitter. The funding is a one-to-one match for funding raised from individual donations and other charitable foundations including the Templin Foundation, Oregon Community Foundation and Oregon Cultural Trust. According to Graham Nystrom, Station Manager, “Professional broadcast equipment is not cheap so we really needed this grant from the M.J. Murdock Charitable Trust. Melvin “Jack” Murdock was a radio guy. He owned a radio and appliance sales and service shop out of high school and went on to start Tektronix, a company that manufactures test equipment used widely in audio and broadcast fields, as well as many others. Lorin Dunlop, our Program Director at the Trust, assured me that Jack and the Trust have always funded radio, and that if he were around today, he
would love our station. I offer my deepest gratitude to Jack Murdock, the Trust, our community and the other foundations who have helped us raise the funds for our much needed ‘radio re-do’.”

CROW’S NEST by Graham Nystrom Station Manager
VIEW FROM THE CROW’S NEST
How does a radio station respond to a pandemic?
I
n short, by embracing the podcast concept. Programmers have been outfitted with a way to record their shows at home and upload their file to the station for automated playback. Before this all hit, I had hoped the radio station could have a year of focusing on creativity. This has turned out to be true, but it’s a different kind of creativity than I had pictured. We’re stretching ourselves into new ways of doing things and we’re growing in the process. We’re reflecting on how good we had it, how easy it is to take things for granted, and how our best selves always emerge in times of crisis. As I listen to classical music on KMUN this morning, it’s not being hand-picked by our local programmers, but it still provides solace to an overactive mind. I appreciate the creative output of the composers of this music. Music is an extraordinary human accomplishment, no matter the genre. Shout out to John Prine.
SPRING 2020 THE CURRENT
I’ve seen creativity pop up everywhere in our community’s response to the Covid-19 pandemic. This includes how people run their small business, how people produce concerts or teach classes using the internet, how people make masks out of materials they have lying around the house. There are many latent skills and talents in all of us that have the opportunity to come to the forefront when we are challenged. Now is a great time to unleash the dormant creator inside of you. You can write letters, carve sculptures, learn the instrument you bought but never touched, work on your poetry skills, and of course, plant a garden. A few days ago, when Donna Quinn asked, “Can I do a live Talk of Our Towns and interview someone over the phone?” I thought about it, moved the KCPB phone patch into the KMUN air room, and now we can have two callers on the air simultaneously. We had the opportunity to be creative, and we worked it out. It’s a constant struggle to keep up with what’s happening right now. From governments, to businesses, to schools, to families, everyone is being pushed to their limits and beyond in order to cope, feel safe and stay healthy. So through all this, I salute the best self in you, I encourage you to express your inner creativity, and I wish you and yours the best during trying times. When this is all over, perhaps our best selves can stick around for a while. And I’m sure the radio will sound better than ever!

G
reetings from coast community radio pledge drive headquarters! As I write this, Dear Listeners, it is Day One of our Spring 2020 Pledge Drive and 3 weeks into the Coronavirus pandemic. Talk about stark contrasts! As we know, a crisis brings out the best and the worst in people. On the one hand, the public had to be asked to stop hoarding toilet paper and face masks, on the other hand, many people have already called in with generous donations and heartfelt comments about what this station means to them. And that makes sense to me. Fear can shut you down but it also brings things into sharp focus. I’m confident this will be a very successful pledge drive because that sharp focus prompts us to embrace the people and the things that are important to us. I have a sense of how important this station is to people because they support us monetarily AND they tell us their stories. How this station is on in their home all the time — it’s the background music to their lives. How they are loyal fans of specific programmers, specific shows. How they were introduced to an artist or a genre that became a passion. How they learned about a local event or retailer or political topic and became involved. How we were a comforting voice in the darkness during a bad storm. Did you call in or donate online during our pledge drive? if so thank you! If not, it’s never too late. Go to coastradio.org and use our online donation form or send a check to KMUN, PO Box 269, Astoria, OR 97103 And keep listening!
T
he global spread of the coronavirus has disrupted our lives in an extraordinary manner. It’s hard to envision the future, what changes will be permanent in this changing landscape. I am looking forward to a better normal, with the lessons we are learning about the tenacity, ingenuity and loveliness of the human spirit. On Friday March 13th we realized we would have to suspend our biggest fundraiser of the year. Just 3 days into the 10 day Spring Membership Drive, our staff made the tough decision, but the right decision, to stop the drive. Our hearts just weren’t in it, having more than normal amounts of people in the station seemed like a bad idea, as did asking for money when people were getting laid off. Since then the KMUN news team of Joanne Rideout, Jacob Lewin and Kathleen Morgain have kept us informed with vital local news. Staff and volunteers have been bringing the listeners an important respite with music and public affairs recorded in their homes with our mobile recording equipment. We haven’t forgotten about the membership drive, how could we? It’s an important part of our budget and our identity. We are 1300+ members strong. We hope you will join us. Sincerely, susan
P.S. Donating is easy at coastradio.org or by mail at KMUN, PO Box 269, Astoria, OR 97103. Thank you!

FROM THE NEWS DEPARTMENT by Joanne Rideout News Director
We’re committed to keeping you up to date with stories that matter
T
hey say the only constant in life is change, and we can certainly say that
about the spring of 2020.
In our small news department at Coast Community Radio, so far this season has been an extraordinarily busy and fast-changing time. It became clear very early on in the COVID-19 pandemic that one of our radio station’s most important roles in our wide-ranging community was getting lots of information out to you, accurately and fast. To that end, we’ve ramped up our news team, which includes our news department of two (myself as news director, and Dylan Hauser Schalk, our news host and engineering assistant) along with a hardy group of very dedicated volunteer correspondents. Together we’re doing our best to keep you informed in a timely way about the constantly evolving landscape that is now our daily lives. We are primarily working at home, with a small skeleton

crew of staff who still go into our studios. Our station has expedited a lightning fast turnaround to keep the organization operating, even as we (staff and volunteers) work remotely. We are extremely grateful to our manager, Graham Nystrom, who has pulled more than one technological rabbit out of his hat to save the day and keep things going. Many thanks to correspondents Kathleen Morgain and Jacob Lewin, part of our volunteer team. They’re doing great work covering news on both sides of the Columbia in our region. At Coast Community Radio, we’ve long said that we’d do our best to be there for you in an emergency. Now that a significant one is underway, we’re committed to keeping you up to date with stories that matter, here on our home turf. It’s one way we can keep our promise of service to the community during the most demanding crisis of our lifetimes.

Things Mariners Can Teach Us Right Now by Joanne Rideout
I
’ve been thinking about what to say to you in this column that could help us all feel a little better about our current situation, from a maritime perspective. My thoughts turned to the solitude and unusual working conditions that mariners are experts at. I thought this might have some bearing for us here on land right now. So here are some things mariners can teach us right now, things they’re really good at. Mariners are self-sufficient. They’re pretty self-entertaining people, especially those who work long months at sea. Mariners are used to being away from family and friends for long periods of time. Mariners are used to getting along with people under unusual circumstances. And mariners are used to expecting the unexpected. On a ship at sea, people are pretty vulnerable, and a lot of things can happen. So let’s talk about these things. In my work on the Ship Report, I’ve interviewed people who work in the maritime industry for about 18 years, and it’s clear they’re a hardy, resilient bunch of people. And it seems to me that hardy resilience is something we all need to develop in ourselves right now. Mariners often work long hours, many of them solitary, even in the midst of crew on board. For instance, down in the very noisy engine room of a ship, people wear headphones to protect their hearing, and they are essentially isolated inside their heads while they work, because they really can’t talk to one another. So they’re used to working in solitude in the midst of a group. An interesting paradox there. In their spare time they read a lot, listen to music, watch movies on board. They make adjustments to coexist with their companions. They realize that part of their job is to get along.
They exercise a lot to stay healthy – most ships have a gym on board, but they also can walk around on the deck and on the many sets of stairs most ships have in the house area, to stay fit. Savvy captains make sure the ship has good food – tasty, nourishing meals are important under difficult circumstances. It really boosts morale and is good for health. They’re used to being cooped up, far from people they would like to be with. They understand that this is temporary. So they occupy themselves with worthwhile things to do to pass the time. In the case of people on board ship, they have specific tasks to do that are part of their jobs. We can create those things for ourselves if we’re stuck at home right now.
The music is even sweeter when you are a member. DONATE TODAY!
So how do they deal with missing people they can’t see right now? One captain said that when he came home from being away, seeing his wife was like having a honeymoon all over again. He had the mindset of not being miserable because he missed her, but looking forward with hope to when he would. One young officer told me that when he missed his girlfriend at sea, he went forward to the bow of the ship and gazed out ahead, so that he was “only looking forward.” A fisherman told me about how he was stuck in a lifeboat in cold conditions off Alaska with three crew mates and no survival gear. He ordered them, as captain, to not talk or think about their loved ones in a sad way. To think, instead, of the task at hand, which, for them, was survival. And to keep hope alive. They all lived. For people who are cooped up with family they don’t usually see this much, mariners are good at that too. They work in close quarters, they do their work, they eat well. Again, they understand that part of their job is to get along. So, this analogy between mariners on oceangoing ships and us on land in a pandemic is not perfect, I know. But I think it has some lessons to teach us. On board ships, anything can happen. Mariners learn to be prepared mentally for anything. Storms that could sink them, mechanical problems that could create an instant emergency, and in some parts of the world, piracy, where they could be murdered. Still, most mariners love their work, and see the beauty in it. I know we’re all going through a tough time right now. And if you’re feeling squeezed by your situation, I hope the lessons of mariners I’ve talked about here can give you food for thought, to design your own way to get through this. To boost your own resilience. I wish you strength and joy at the many things in our lives that we can always be grateful about. I urge you to seek out those things and focus on them now.

PROGRAMMING NOTES by Emily Geddes Programming Director
S
“We have built ourselves an unyieldingly compassionate and empowered community here at the station.”
o much has changed since i wrote the first draft of this article, only a few weeks ago, and more will change by the time it goes to print. At that time, I argued in favor of leaning into slow (read: thoughtful) media. This feels even more pertinent now, as we are inundated with conflicting reports on the state of the world at every turn. I hope we can pause within the chaos to evaluate which information sources have our best interest at heart, and which seek only to alarm us. I have been working hard to close the extra tabs in my mental browser, to be more critical of the information that I take in, and to focus on the tangible good that I can do within my own life, without losing my sanity to the stress of worrying about what I can’t control. That list of things I can’t control seems to grow exponentially, but what never waivers is my faith in our team here at the station, staff and volunteers alike, to bring the best in information and entertainment to the airwaves. With a cat on my lap, at the desk in my bedroom “office,” which now doubles (triples?) as a mini recording studio, I’m thinking back on a throughline of these past few weeks: we have built ourselves an unyieldingly compassionate and empowered community here at the station. From the safety of their homes, our programmers are learning new tech, recording your favorite shows, and coordinating a new, complex web of content management. They are an incredible group of humans, and I feel so lucky to get to work with them. We are all in need of connection right now, and their extra effort allows us to keep bringing you Good Radio, which is truly no small feat. I cannot thank them enough, but plan to try.
I had previously intended to share a short playlist to accompany a trip down the 101, windows down, on the first day of the year that hits 65F. Since we aren’t doing much traveling these days, I’ll pivot. I give you instead my Top 5, All Time, Very Best Songs for Blasting in Your Living Room to Destroy Any Bad Mood:

PROGRAMMING
By Marco Davis 3RD WEDNESDAY OF THE MONTH, 8:30–10:30PM
F
our years ago, Over the Rainbow had our first show, the third Wednesday of the month; I still remember the excitement and nerves as I sat at the board, shaking hands as I typed in my email for Spinatron and faded up Judy Garland singing, “Over the Rainbow.” We were live, and David Drafall, Chris Wright and I, Marco Davis, were giddy with delight as we introduced ourselves to the listening community and laid out our playlist of music that inspires, delights and makes us dance.
I mog en G a ller y
As the years have passed, and quickly I must say, the only constant has been David and me at the board. We have been on a quest to search out current queer artists and/or the music that gets us up and out of our seats to dance it out. We play off of each other’s music, one song leading us to the next as the improv of the moment leads us through our two hours on air. We love it when we have people call in to tell us how much they are enjoying the show and that they love the surprise of the dance that they find themselves doing. A few listeners clean their houses as they listen. But our absolute favorite thing is stumping Spinatron as it searches out the artist we are playing, ‘unrecognized music’ flashing on the computer screen. We may be old relics to a lot of folks, but we play up to the minute music and love sharing the dance with the listening audience of Coast Community Radio. Editor’s note: Spinatron is a service the radio station uses to pay musician

Community Radio (CCR) volunteer is announcing the beginning of live broadcasting on KMUN 91.9 Astoria and KTCB 89.5 Tillamook. On Tuesday, I am usually the one, otherwise any of several other voices is bringing news, weather, and music to the Pacific Northwest. From 6:00AM to 8:00AM a volunteer presents his/her favorite classical music on Morning Classics.
by Richard Dawson
We have differences in musical tastes, making CCR the best radio station available. I prefer the baroque era and some early classical, featuring composers generally born after 1650, up to about 1800. Others may pick more recent composers. Whether it’s Bach, Beethoven, Dvorak, or Aaron Copland doesn’t really matter; much of what you hear is what listeners like you requested.

genres, including folk, gospel, blues, country and bluegrass. We aren’t just classical. You name it, we probably have it. And we have it every day of the week. Equally important to me are the many friendships I have developed at CCR with some very interesting, talented, and amazing people. Each volunteer, whether a voice on the air, or working behind the scenes, is equally important to the success of this radio adventure and I am proud to have them as friends. I’m a firm believer in giving back to the community; for me, one aspect has been CCR. I hope you are giving back as well, whether it is CCR or another worthy cause. As Wayne Downing likes to say, “I’ll see you on the radio.” Morning Classics is also hosted by Bob Westerberg, Lloyd Bowler, Jane Hill, David Paul, Thron Riggs, Whispering Smith, Pete Serafin
TOOTS Talk of Our Towns
WEDNESDAYS, 9:30–10 AM
By Donna Quinn, TOOTS host for 16 years and counting!
T
alk of Our Towns began with the idea that there was a lot to talk about in the Columbia Pacific Region... and beyond! TOOTS is a forum, an interview program, a glimpse into people, places and events which deserve our attention … mostly here, some from afar. There are fine people and excellent organizations doing important work in each of the towns which make up our unique part of the world. There are diverse characters creating quirky and amazing lives, inviting us to stretch our minds
and be curious. Who are they? What are they doing? WHY are they doing it? How does what they are doing affect us and how can we become more informed and engaged with our community... and what is beyond our doorstep? Although TOOTS generally focuses on local folks and issues, often there is a surprise connection with a person, place or thing which will be of interest to everyone, wherever they call home. Guests range from a traveling writer passing through town to a deeply rooted local who volunteers with one or more of the many worthy non-profits which keep good things happening for everyone. The intention is that there is always something GOOD coming through the airwaves on TOOTS through thoughtful and lively conversation with interesting folks!
it hopefully entertains, educates, inspires, enlightens and provides a call to action where needed! Donna would very much appreciate your ideas for TOOTS guests and topics so please email her at: donnaquinnsisu@gmail. com and put TOOTS in the topic line. Thank you! And... remember to find a moment today to take a deep breath…………….!
TOOTS explores the eclectic and far-reaching interests of the Coast Community Radio audience, wherever they may be in the world. TOOTS is about humanity, discovery, connection and information as
