Radio Sausalito broadcasts are authorized under the FCC Code of Federal Regulations Part 15. These FCC limitations allow our equipment a range of just a few blocks each! We are not a "pirate radio" station because our broadcast methodology is completely legal. For a detailed description see the technical explanation below.

Radio Sausalito is operated as a public service for the residents and visitors of Sausalito. Our 15 person all-volunteer staff helps keep the station on the air 24 hours a day with studios are located in the Police Annex at 405 Johnson Street in Sausalito. Our repeaters are located in each of the valleys (neighborhoods) throughout the town. We also have a repeater on the west bluff of Belvedere to serve the maritime community. Radio Sausalito is run entirely on Apple Macintosh Computers using custom programmed automation and equipment which meets or exceed FCC specifications.
