KPHD-LP · 93.3 FM
KPHD-LP 93.3 The Gig · Modesto, CA · LPFM
How they take music → Mail · Bands page takes original songs only, no covers, nothing unairable by FCC standards, and an ASCAP BMI SESAC song without a signed release form will not be played. Send the completed broadcast release and submission form with a photo, by email or by US Mail with the mp3 on a data CD. Web links to an mp3 work best. The station's only published email belongs to a named individual, so the mailing address is the safe route.

Counted from the 4 Modesto stations on this page, from what each one publishes itself. It is the fastest way to read a market before you build anything for it: an envelope market and an inbox market ask different work of you.

Every door is on your sheet.

Pick your sound and region on Rotation and each of these stations shows its real submission contact and the exact rules it posts: clean edit, WAV, form or mail. Checked by hand and kept current. No station here paid to be listed.

Radio is the free half, and it stays that way. Every station here is free to reach and no station ever pays to be listed. The Doors is the other half: 100 verified places that are not radio, sync libraries, music supervisors, festivals, contests, live sessions and the music press, 43 of which can actually pay an artist. It also lists the 162 we opened and refused, with the reason each one failed, because most lists of this kind are stale and the rejections are the part nobody else will show you. $9.99, the 2026 Q3 edition →
