Two Ways
to Give.

Aircheck Radio streams over 3,500 historic broadcasts — free, unedited, uninterrupted, every day. No ads. No subscriptions. No algorithm deciding what you hear.

That costs real money. Bandwidth, storage, licensing, and digitization don't pay for themselves. Your contribution keeps this archive alive and accessible to everyone.

You can support us with a financial donation, or by contributing recordings from your personal collection. We welcome both — and we honor every gift.

01
Financial Contribution
Donate Money

A one-time or recurring gift of any size keeps the servers running, the licenses paid, and the stream live. $10 covers a day of streaming. $50 covers a month of storage. $100 funds the licensing history of an entire station.

Every donor receives a written acknowledgment for tax purposes. Payments are processed securely through our GiveWP platform.

Aircheck Contribution
Donate Recordings

Got a box of old airchecks? Reel-to-reel from your board op days? Cassettes from a market you worked? We want them — unscoped, unedited, imperfect.

Digital files upload directly from your browser. Physical tapes are accepted by mail. We digitize, catalog, and stream every recording — preserved permanently and credited to you.

Contribute Recordings

Aircheck Radio is committed to accessibility. Our archive is free and open to all listeners — including those with hearing loss, visual impairment, or limited data access. If you encounter any barrier using this site, contact us directly and we will personally assist you.
