"WHY AREN'T YOU ON THE INTERNET?"

Ah yes, our number one question!  Short answer, because it takes money.  We currently are using a very old Dell Computer to run our whole station. There's no way that computer could handle the load necessary to broadcast online.  So we need to buy a new one.  That's where you come in.  If your business wants to run promotional announcements on 98.3, please contact Andrew below.  Or if you can spare $5, please donate!

ABOUT US:

98.3 is a radio station licensed to St. Mary's College, in St. Mary's KS.  We broadcast Classical and quality orchestral music, interspersed with Catholic prayers and devotions, as well as Local, State, National, Catholic, and Sports News throughout the day.

98.3 is classified as a Low Power FM Station, which means we have a certain amount of power we can use to broadcast our signal. We can reach roughly 15 miles in all directions.  On a good day, and in good weather, you can hear us as far as Topeka or Manhattan.

This station was founded in 2002 by Mr. Herman Belderok, and with equipment that was graciously donated by many entities, went on the air, broadcasting from the top of the "Old Water Tower" behind the Immaculata Chapel ruins.

Thanks to his continued dedication, our small offices above the Auditorium continued to grow, be remodeled, and house a fantastic (and small) station that has continued to broadcast through today. 

Thanks to the efforts of people like Mr. Belderok, the guidance of our chaplain, Fr. Paul Robinson, and many other volunteers, we can broadcast our Traditional Catholic message to a small, but growing number of listeners every day.

Yours in Christ,
