REC has completed the annnual inventory of Low Power FM (LPFM) broadcast stations.  The results of the inventory can be found at LPFM.us.  LPFM stations should check their listing and if there are any corrections, or we were not able to find any information and you have that information, please use the form link at the bottom of that page in order to send your updates to REC.  They will be added once confirmed.
