TWIAR's OPEN AUDITION CALL  

This Week in Amateur Radio and This Week in Amateur Radio International, are having open audition calls for news anchors and special segment producers. 

These all volunteer positions can have you heard around the world. 

You can be part of North Americas Premier Amateur Radio and Technology news magazine. This Week in Amateur Radio is distributed not only on the ham radio bands, and north American geostationary satellite, our services are also in the top fifty podcasts across the country, and it is carried on 50,000 watt WBCQ shortwave radio around the world. 

If you feel (or have been told so many times) that you have a good "radio voice" or radio presence, then This Week in Amateur Radio is the outlet for the "frustrated broadcaster" in you! 

WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR: 

NEWS ANCHORS: News anchors read our news stories from week to week on a rotating basis. You must have a computer (PC or Mac) with a good sound card, a decent microphone, and be familiar with audio editing and recording software. You must also be versed in FTP file transfer. 

This position calls for late Friday night, or early Saturday morning availability. Our news script is delivered to anchors via e-mail, between 8pm and 11pm on Friday evenings. Completed audio must be uploaded no later than 11am Saturday morning. All times listed are eastern time. 

News Anchors are the core of This Week in Amateur Radio. If this sounds like its for you, please send an e-mail to our producer right now! 

Please send your name and ham call if you have one, your city and state, and very important, a return phone number with a good window of time where we can reach you. If you like, you can also send a short mp3 voice demo along with your contact information to: w2xbs(at)twiar.org.

SPECIAL SEGMENT PRODUCER: If the frustrated broadcaster in you would like to audition for us, but you don't have the time availability for a news anchor position, consider becoming a Special Segment Producer (SSP). 

SSP's produce a package once a month on a particular topic of interest to them, that is related to amateur radio and technology in general.  Some of our current SSP's on the air include, "The Random Access File", "The Ancient Amateur Archives", and, "Dead Electrical Dudes". 

Each self-contained segment, is delivered ready for air. It can run anywhere between four and ten minutes maximum in length. 

Some suggested topics that we would like to have include segments on computers and amateur radio, shortwave listening and general DX'ing, computer networking. 

If you have an idea for a special segment package, and would like to audition, send an e-mail right away! Space on the air for special segments is limited. 

Please send your name and ham call if you have one, your city and state, and very important, a return phone number with a good window of time when we can reach you. If you like, you can also send a short mp3 voice demo along with your contact information to: w2xbs(at)twiar.org.

Good luck to all. Auditions will remain open until we take this notice off the web site. Hope to hear from you soon!
