Check out this video highlight of our 1 hour broadcast as a national host station of the 15th Annual Homelessness Marathon. Portsmouth Community Radio was one of 7 stations selected to host an hour (3-4 pm) of this program designed to raise awareness of the homelessness problem in America. Over 200 stations worldwide carried our broadcast on the Pacifica Broadcasting Network, the same network that broadcasts Democracy Now (M-F, 5 to 6 pm) with Amy Goodman. This broadcast is one of the many things that makes “Community Radio” so incredibly unique and valuable, and we were proud to participate and to be selected as a host station.

US Senators Shaheen and Ayotte spoke briefly and answered questions on April 20, 2012 at the Portsmouth Chamber of Commerce (hosted by the Sheraton Hotel). They discussed BRAC (the Base Realignment and Closure process), stating that closing military sites like the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard may take several years to save money, and that the latest nuclear attack submarines are critical to national security.
BRAC is an independent nine-member panel appointed by the President. In 2005, the Pentagon / BRAC process listed the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard as a site that was not needed and slated it for closure. However a local political outcry (now led by Senators Shaheen and Ayotte as members of the Armed Services Committee) caused the shipyard to be removed from the closure list, for now.
Thanks to Roger Wood for recording this event. Available as MP3 or OGG (Ogg version has some noise correction).
