I'm going to type this real slowly so that you can understand it the first time.
Finances of the NETWORK have NOTHING to do with the finances of the Forum. The radio program, will be part of the NETWORK therefore it will be funded by the NETWORK and not by the forum.
FR donors won't be asked to pay for any of it, since RadioFR is not run by Free Republic but rather the Free Republic Network. (But you knew that already, didn't ya?) The cost of running it will depend on how much time we buy and we have not yet settled upon a regular programming schedule for the future. I promise you'll be the first to know once those costs are determined.
Thanks for asking!
