Counted from the 3 Wilmington 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. Across them, 7 individual shows are mapped from the stations' own published schedules, with the night and hour each one airs.

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.

A thin market is not a dead end. Radio is national and nothing about your sheet is limited to one state: 273 stations across the country have a door confirmed open right now, and a programmer two states away can play you exactly as easily as a local one. Radio is also not the only wall. The Doors is 100 verified places that are not radio, 43 of which can actually pay an artist. $9.99, and the radio side stays free either way. See what is in it →
