City Hall final meeting on Tuesday
For 33 years KUSF was an essential voice on the Bay Area FM airwaves. It featured unusually diverse, cutting edge music and a broad range of cultural programming not heard elsewhere on the dial. The university abruptly pulled the plug on the station under a $3.75 million deal that transfers KUSF's 90.3 FM frequency to classical music station KDFC, just purchased by a University of Southern California-controlled nonprofit. KDFC's old frequency, 102.1, is being taken over by rock station KUFX.
The move is part of a larger deal that still requires Federal Communications Commission approval. The organization saveKUSF is fighting to block the sale of the broadcasting rights to 90.3fm.
The university plans to make KUSF an online-only entity. KUSF enjoyed a mix of students and volunteers from the community. Community volunteers will not have a role with the on-line KUSF.
For up-to-date information and how you can help block the sale, here are several links:

I am very disappointed in the University of San Francisco's recent decision to sell the broadcast license for 90.3 FM, where KUSF sat ("Hundreds protest decision to shut radio station KUSF," Jan. 20).
KUSF was a valuable resource to San Francisco. The station's locally produced programming exemplified the unique diversity and eclecticism that is San Francisco. KUSF broadcast in nine languages, giving a voice to those who have few other outlets through which they could be heard.
President Stephan A. Privett's blatant disregard for the people of San Francisco through this sale and the way it was handled is shameful. Although corporate deals involving commercial stations are common, stations in the public-radio frequency range should be treated differently. These stations are specifically set aside by the federal government for community service and noncommercial purposes. The transfer of these licenses should not happen without input from the community the station serves.
The University of San Francisco sought no community input in its decision to sell the frequency. The University of San Francisco and the community of San Francisco should come to a mutually beneficial solution to allow KUSF to remain intact on the broadcast dial at 90.3 FM. Carolyn Keddy, Oakland

Well, the radio station at 90.3 FM is gone, and the website will only take 15 listeners, so anyone who wants to listen to their favorite KUSF show these days is pretty much screwed, right?
Wrong -- sort of. Today, as KUSF supporters prepare for another demonstration at City Hall -- this one featuring a performance from local garage-rock hero/former KUSF DJ Ty Segall -- and as the Save KUSF campaign continues in full force with T-shirts, posters, letters of support from famous people, and more sadness, we bring you a small present: DJ David Bassin's show FreeFall, a sweet two-hour set of "future jazz, R &B, global grooves & abstract beats." Hearing it feels like a tonic, even if it isn't coming through the airwaves. Check it out after the jump.
"We've been away for a couple weeks due to all the craziness with KUSF," Bassin, says at the opening of his 10-year-old show, a decidedly understated way of putting it. "It's you and me together again."
Then Bassin launches into a two-hour journey through various rhythms -- electronic beats and Latin grooves included -- making for perfect morning music. Sadly, it can't help but remind us of everything music fans (and fans of free-form radio in general) have lost with the station's sale. Stream or download Bassin's latest show below, and show up to City Hall at 1 p.m. today for the rally, Segall performance, and signing of a resolution.
Freefall
David Bassin hosts an eclectic two-hour mix of future jazz, R &B, global grooves & abstract beats tat has received international acclaim since it's debut in 2000. Weekly rebroadcasts are available on Live365.com , Giant Step.net (NYC), Net-Musique.com (San Francisco). RadioTake10.org (China), DanceAnd Soul.com (Singapore). RadioPellenera.com (Italy) and the weekly podcast, available for free from the iTunes music store.

Dear Sir:
I am writing to express my opposition to the University of San Francisco’s recent decision to sell the broadcast license for 90.3 fm where KUSF currently sits. KUSF is a valuable resource to the City of San Francisco. The station’s locally produced programming exemplifies the unique diversity and eclecticism that is San Francisco. KUSF broadcasts in nine different languages giving a voice to those who have few other outlets through which they can be heard. President Privett’s blatant disregard for the people of San Francisco through this sale and the way it was handled is shameful.
Although corporate deals involving commercial stations are common, frequencies in the public radio range should be treated differently. These stations are specifically set aside by the federal government for community service and noncommercial purposes. The transfer of these licenses should not to happen without input from the community which the station serves. The University of San Francisco sought no community input in its decision to sell the frequency.
The University of San Francisco and the community of San Francisco should come to a mutually beneficial solution in order to allow KUSF to remain intact on the broadcast dial at 90.3 fm.
Sincerely,
(your name)

Come to our rally tomorrow Tuesday, February 1 at 1 pm outside of San Francisco's City Hall. TY SEGALL and others will be performing. The Board of Supervisors will vote on the resolution to stop the sale of KUSF at 4pm.

If you're not too exhausted after all that, I am DJing at the Casanova Lounge, 527 Valencia St, SF on TUESDAY, February 1, 6 to 9 pm. Come on down. The music will be loud, the drinks will be cheap, there will be dancing on the bar and I'll even play THE DAMNED if they send in their KUSF letter.
KUSF TOP 10 ALBUMS (1/29/10) 1: The Golden Ring "Iranian Styled 60’s Garage & Other Exotic Sounds" 2: Beach House "Teen Dream" 3: Animal Collective "Fall Be Kind" 4: The Mermen "In God We Trust" 5: The New Dawn "There’s A New Dawn" 6: Atlas Sound "Logos" 7: V/A "Forge Your Own Chains" 8: Hobocop "S/T" 9: V/A "Pop Ambient 2010" 10: V/A "Freedom Rhythm & Sound"
Many of you know by now that KUSF was unjustly taken off the air in a complex deal in which America's fifth largest corporate radio conglomerate, Entercom, had part in some dealings along with the University of Southern California that has seen the purchase and takeover of low-dial airwaves and the contribution to the unfortunate trend of silencing independent voices and the mainstreaming/ homogenization of media.
As it stands now, the organization 'Save KUSF' plans to stop the sale of its broadcasting license before the FCC and intends to get back on the air. Our movement got off to a roaring start and now we must continue the momentum. The SF Board of Supervisors is now involved and has introduced a resolution co-sponsored by Supervisors Ross Mirkarimi, Eric Mar, and John Avalos. What can the board do you ask? It gives us political leverage in our fight so that once the resolution passes we can move on to bigger names (Pelosi, Boxer, etc.) and can be granted a meeting with USF in order to stop the deal.
This is where you come in. It is integral to our cause that the resolution pass this Tuesday, February 1st. Once again we rally at City Hall at 1 p.m., before the Supervisors meet AND VOTE on this resolution. They need to hear from constituents like you that it's unacceptable for a community/college-run station of 33 years with cultural programming in nine languages and ties to the vibrant underground and local music scene that will otherwise go unheard in a free broadcast format, to simply disappear.

By mail: Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau, Federal Communications Commission, 445 12th Street SW, Washington, D.C., 20554.
By phone: 866-267-7202. That’s the radio broadcast specialist office. The email is radioinfo@fcc.gov. The job of this office is to help the public with radio inquiries, including regarding the transfer of licenses.
You can also email the individual commissioners:

Supporters of KUSF, the community radio station owned by the University of San Francisco that ceased broadcasting recently when it was abruptly sold, want to make sure the station’s extensive archives will be preserved.
Founded in 1963, the station’s archives contain a “massive number of CDs and vinyl,” according to Irwin Swirnoff, the former music director. “It has cultural value that is priceless in terms of diversity and obscurity,” he said, with deep collections in jazz, rock, punk, electronic music and other genres.
Archivists Meagan and Rick Prelinger of the Prelinger Library in San Francisco are advising Swirnoff and other KUSF supporters on preserving the collection. “The music library has to be kept intact as a physical memory of everything that KUSF has been, and as a starting point for future,” said Meagan Prelinger, who is a longtime fan of the station. “It’s like the sound track of my life has been turned off.”
The dimensions of the vast archive containing 34 years of Bay Area broadcasting history are difficult to determine precisely. Much of it sits in Phelan Hall on the University of San Francisco campus and will be moved to a yet-undetermined location in coming months.
Reached on Friday afternoon, university spokesman Gary McDonald said he didn’t know immediately how many items it contained. “We talk about it in terms of space,” he said. “It’s large.”
Swirnoff said the collection consists of an active CD library and vinyl library. Items like 78 rpm records are packed away in storage areas.
In the long term, the university plans to digitize the archive, according to McDonald, “so that it will be available to anyone working in KUSF.org,” the online-only version of the station that will replace KUSF.
McDonald said he didn’t know how much it would cost to convert the collection to digital or what would become of the original materials afterwards.
Thanks for your support! All funds are being used to retain skilled lawyers and plead our case, and all donations are tax-deductible to the full extent of the law. Donors will receive IRS-mandated donor acknowledgement letters from Media Arts Center San Diego, a 501(c)(3) organization, and the fiscal sponsor of Friends of KUSF.
