A group of independent stations is proposing to the NRSC RBDS subcommittee to make a new radio station classification of "Community."

It seems a justified request. Although there is a "Public" classification it tends to suggest more of NPR affiliated stations rather than local independent stations. Many listeners to community stations are seeking out their programming rather than programming associated with NPR.
