Jefferson Teen Has Passion for Net Radio

Since August, Kevin Pattky launched seven online radio stations, and that's just the beginning.

With unceasing energy and enthusiasm, 19-year-old Kevin Pattky Jr. of Jefferson Township is living his dream of producing radio and has developed seven station formats since August available online at: iNCORadio.com

iNCO Radio is the brain child of Pattky and co-Founder and friend Nick Orbay, and features music for every taste. 

"We offer a wide range of music including holiday hits, pop, epic party, top 40, soft rock and a mix channel," said Pattky.

Pattky said anyone can launch a web-based radio program these days using services like the one he subscribes to: Live365.com which provides all of the music, storage and licensing for $200 per month. 

While Pattky is not making a living at his passion currently, he is planning to attend the Connecticut School of Broadcasting next year which offers a six-month program to prepare for a professional job in radio broadcasting.

For him, the challenge is to program the music in a way that really impacts the listener.

"We've gotten really positive feedback so far," said Pattky, who said he plays a lot of independent music and new releases. 

He said he is hoping to hold a fundraiser for a worthy cause such as autism that would benefit the organization and help him launch his radio stations as viable businesses.

For Pattky, it's important to stay web-based. He said he likes the idea that the radio programs he creates can be enjoyed around the world.
