No, running a program provided on a “barter” basis does not allow an LPFM (or NCE) station to include commercials. LPFM (Low Power FM) and NCE (Non-Commercial Educational) stations are subject to specific regulations that prohibit the airing of commercial advertising. Even if a program is acquired through a barter arrangement, which involves exchanging content for airing in exchange for something of value, it does not grant LPFM or NCE stations permission to broadcast commercials. These stations are required to maintain their non-commercial status and adhere to FCC regulations, which prohibit the broadcast of commercial content in any form.
