Time is ticking away and we’re so close to claiming victory in Soundtap Madness. We’ve got a lot of ground to make up, but given last night’s success on the streams, we should be able to truly do this! Keep listening and tell your friends because there’ll be a special program from 1-3 AM for all you folks tuning in.
If you’d like to make any requests, shout out or the like, call 412 621 9728 or instant message wrct883 via AIM to make sure that they go on the air.
And here’s something for the graph lovers amongst you, track us in real time. WRUV has gained some ground on us, so there’s some serious listening to be done. Let’s keep the green above the blue! We know Soundtap has had data collection problems before, so don’t get demoralized by the numbers on their website.

At the end of this final round, WRCT will be rewarding the top 5 listeners who log the most hours on Soundtap. We feel that this kind of thanks is owed to these dedicated listeners. Without the commitment of you, our listeners, we wouldn’t have lasted past the first round.
What will those listeners receive? Well, it’s a surprise, but you can count that it’ll arrive lovingly packaged at their doorsteps.
Keep listening at http://soundtap.com/madness and you might be one of those lucky few! Track your progress by clicking on WRCT’s ticker, and good luck!

Our darling WRCT has made it through the fire and flames and is now in the finals of Soundtap Madness, the March Madness-style competition between non-commercial radio stations!
We’re now pitted head to head against the University of Vermont’s top notch station, WRUV. The past 2 rounds have seen WRUV rack up a mighty total of 3,400 hours, so this is going to be a tough one.
So what do we do now? Well, we tell our friends, family, co-workers, employees, students, and studio mates to tune in via Soundtap. We’re going to need all the help we can get this round! We have until 3 a.m. EST Thursday morning to rack up the hours.
Let’s show those green mountain boys and girls what these kids from the three rivers are capable of.
A reminder: To have your listening counted you should listen through soundtap.com/madness — NOT our regular webstream. You will need to register and use a Facebook login or text message to verify. That’s the only catch. Sometimes the site is a little funky. If it doesn’t load correctly, try a different browser. You can listen as long as you like, but if you don’t click the “Yes I am listening button” every 60 minutes, your listening won’t count. And we wouldn’t want that.
