Is free, open-source software a viable option for running your radio station?  Fred Gleason, co-founder of Paravel Systems says it’s worth consideration. His Rivendell radio automation software is open-source, widely deployed, fully professional – and free to use.  Paravel’s financial model is to charge for pre-configured hardware and for support, but both are optional.   Fred talks to us about Rivendell open-source radio automation and call screening software.
