Technical Difficulties: Between the Lines, CounterSpin, Informativo Pacifica and This Way Out
**This has been resolved. All four shows will air at their normal times this week.**
We are experiencing technical difficulties airing several of the shows that we pick up from other sources. We use home-grown scripts to automatically download these shows and broadcast them here on Berkshire Community Radio. At the moment, something in our process is running amuck. As a result, we are not able to currently air the following shows: Between the Lines, CounterSpin, Informativo Pacifica and This Way Out. They remain in rotation in our online program schedule however, and will return to the air as soon as possible. We apologize for any inconvenience.

Record and CD Sale was a Success
In spite a week of dire weather forecasts, our Record and CD sale this past Saturday was a terrific success. We sold thousands of CDs and records, the weather was perfect with a light rain just starting as we were breaking down the sale. Many thanks to the group of volunteers that made the sale possible. We also are grateful to Theresa’s Stockbridge Cafe for providing food for the event on very short notice.
