SAVE MONEY ON PRINTER INK THROUGH ROCK-IT
RADIO!  


One of the biggest office expenses here at Rock-it Radio is

printer ink.  Everytime we would go to Staples or Office Mart
we would pay $50 to $100 on printer ink.  We have been able
to cut that cost in half with mailorder through 123 inkjet.  We
liked the savings so much we have endorsed and became a
affiliate of this service.  So, cut your printer ink costs in half
and help Rock-it Radio at the same time, by ordering through
123 Inkjets on our webpage.  The link is at the bottom of our
main webpage at: http://www.rockitradio.net  

I hope you will be as pleasantly surprised as I was with the
savings of printer ink!

99.1 FM VENTURA STATION GOES OFF AIR AGAIN
After finally getting clearance to broadcast once again on 99.1 FM
in Ventura on Low Power FM.  KRKT-LP Station was ready to
hit the airwaves once again.  And had been running tests the latter
part of May.  A used carousel system with a automated link was
purchased to play programming once again as the old one was
non functional.  Unfortunately after a little over a week the carousel
died.  We are in hopes of a good month this next month from the
Launching pad to finally go digital on the 99.1 FM station and provide
local programming of Rock-it Radio.  We will keep you posted.
