Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 15 Directors and officers have never received any compensation or benefits. When we have had paid employees they are paid considerably lower than that paid by other ministries for similar positions.

Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19 These documents will be supplied on request and other website Form 990, Part IX, Line 14 Form 990 Pt9 Line 14 We stream to terrestrial and internet radio stations with different feeds. We have a number of dedicated servers at different data centers across the country. We are on digital platforms, such as I-Tunes, Alexa, and many apps. We buy expensive software to control our systems with the least manpower required. When we have been unable to find the necessary software we have hired developers to create appropriate custom software. Form 990, Part IX, Line 16 Form 990 Part 9, Line 16 Our 50 KW radio transmitter eats up a huge amount of electricity and makes a lot of heat which has to air-conditioned to a cool temperature, this is even higher in hot climates. Tower rental space for antennas is extremely expensive but necessary. These expenses are the bulk of our occupancy cost. Form 990, Part X, Line 24 All notes and loans payable are interest free Form 990, Part XI, Line 9 Due to the Form 990 Online software rounding all entries to the nearest dollar, we had to adjust by $1.00 to balance the form.
