                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                       THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1995

(1)  Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.  The accompanying unaudited
     financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions
     to Form 10-QSB and do not include all of the information and footnotes
     required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
     statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of
     normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for fair presentation have
     been included.  While management believes that the disclosures presented
     are adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that
     these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
     statements and the related notes included in the Corporation's latest
     report on Form 10-KSB.  Operating results for the interim period are not
     necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year.

(2)  Income Taxes.  Income taxes in the consolidated statement of operations
     include deferred income tax provisions for all significant temporary
     differences in recognizing income and expenses for financial reporting and
     income tax purposes.  The Corporation files consolidated income tax
     returns.

     At March 31, 1995, the Corporation had approximately $12 million of net
     operating loss carry forwards, which expire in years 2002 through 2009.

     At March 31, 1994, the Corporation had a cumulative net deferred tax asset.
     This asset has been offset by an evaluation allowance since management
     believes it is more likely than not that, except for the reversals of
     taxable temporary differences, the Corporation will not generate income to
     utilize all of the net operating loss carry forwards. In addition, the
     Corporation had deferred state income tax expense of $78,000.

(3)  Net Loss Per Common Share.  Net loss per common share is determined on the
     average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  The
     inclusion of stock warrants and stock options in the computation per common
     share would be anti-dilutive since the Corporation incurred a net loss for
     the three months ended March 31, 1994 and had nominal net income for the
     three months ended March 31, 1995, and accordingly was not considered in
     the calculation.

     Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
              Financial Condition

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

     For the quarter ended March 31, 1995 and 1994, the Corporation operated the
same properties.
 
     Gross revenues for the quarter were up 13% or $223,000.  This increase is
attributable to an increase in local advertising dollars for the radio industry
in general, and a significant increase in national business.  National revenues
at the Corporation's stations were up 43% over the prior year.  The
Corporation's Albuquerque property showed the most significant increase with
revenues exceeding the prior year's by 55%.  The Albuquerque market as a whole
showed significant revenue growth in the quarter.  All other markets had
insignificant changes in revenues except for Bryan, Texas which decreased 23% as
a result of poor ratings and increased market competition.

     Agency commissions as a percentage of gross sales were approximately 10.3%
in 1995 vs. 9.8% in 1994.  This increase is a result of the increase in national
sales in 1995.

     Technical and programming expenses increased $32,000 or 8%.  The increase
was largely due to an increase in engineering salaries as a result of adding an
additional full time engineer at one of the Corporation's properties.  The
remaining increase related to wage increases for program personnel, as program
salaries constitute the largest portion of expense in this line.

     Selling and general administrative expenses increased $92,000 or 7%.  This
increase is related to higher compensation costs related to the Corporation's
general managers.  All of the Corporation's general managers signed new
employment contracts in the fourth quarter of 1994.  These new employment
contracts had new pay structures which were based more on the performance of the
property and some general salary increases.  In addition, the Corporation
replaced two of its sales managers in the first quarter and incurred relocation
expense as a result.

     Interest expense decreased 18% or $32,000 as a result of the Corporation
ceasing to accrue interest on a total of $2.9 million in debt in 1995 vs. 1994.
The Corporation has had no contact with the holders of this debt in over six
years.  Management believes that the likelihood of the Corporation eventually
being required to pay this interest is minimal (see Financial Condition).  The
Corporation's overall interest expense compared to the debt level continues to
remain low as a result of a substantial amount of the debt being restructured
with an effective interest rate of 0% for book purposes.

     Other income (expense) which consists of consulting fees, interest income
and other miscellaneous items decreased as a result of lower miscellaneous items
during the first quarter of 1995.

Financial Condition
- -------------------

     The Corporation's principal source of funds is cash flow provided by the
operation of the radio stations.  Its primary needs include working capital,
capital expenditures to maintain property, plant, and equipment, and repayment
of debt.  During the first quarter of 1995, the Corporation was able to meet its
primary cash need of debt service ($261,000) by not paying

                                       7
<PAGE>
 
interest on the portion of the debt which is currently in default ($89,000), a
decrease in receivables ($96,000), and a decrease in prepaid items ($45,000).

     The Corporation has operated with a working capital deficiency for several
years.  At March 31, 1995, the deficit was approximately $11,256,000.  This
deficit compares to a deficit of approximately $11,178,000 at December 31, 1994.
During the last several years, the Corporation has not generated sufficient
funds for working capital, debt repayment schedules as they currently exist, and
capital expenditures.  The Corporation is currently in default on $6,418,000 in
debt and has scheduled debt repayments of $2,964,000 over the next 12 months.

     As described in Part II, Item 3, "Defaults Upon Senior Security", the
Corporation continues to be in violation of certain provisions of its long-term
borrowings.  The total principal value of all notes on which the Corporation is
currently in default is approximately $6,418,000.  These notes have
approximately $3 million in unpaid accrued interest.  The Corporation is in
default on this debt primarily because of non-payment of principal and interest.
Some lenders have received no payments from the Corporation for over six years
and several of the notes have either matured in full or have had substantial
principal payments due since 1991.  Under applicable state law, scheduled debt
payments which are not made after a specified period of time (statute of
limitations) are not collectible by the creditor.

     During the quarter ended March 31, 1995, the Corporation treated as
canceled a note issued in December, 1989, with unpaid principal of $128,749 and
unpaid interest of $55,135. This note has been treated as canceled because it
has been in default for more than four years, and the Corporation has been
advised by counsel that the applicable statute of limitations for collection of
this note is four years.

     Also, at March 31, 1995, the Corporation had ceased accruing interest on
$2,200,000 of its notes and on $750,000 of its notes.  The holders of these
notes have not made an effort to collect on them for more than six years.

     The Corporation plans to deal with its weak financial condition by
continuing to develop a strong profit base with its current stations and
focusing on the restructuring of secured and unsecured debts.  The Corporation
continues to negotiate with some of its secured lenders in order to restructure
its debt obligations in such a way they can be paid out of the net cash now
being generated by the Corporation's broadcast properties.
 
     The Corporation has had success in the past in renegotiating with creditors
on extended payment pay-outs.  However, the Corporation was not successful in
renegotiating any notes in 1994 or first quarter 1995, and there is no certainty
that additional creditors with whom the Corporation is now in default will
accept renegotiated terms in the future.  Failure to renegotiate successfully
with these lenders will severely hamper the Corporation's ability to continue as
a going concern.  The Corporation will not generate sufficient funds in 1995 to
service its current operating expenses, capital needs, and debt obligations as
they are currently structured.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION:

     Item 1.        Legal Proceedings

     On April 17, 1995, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation as Receiver
for the National Bank of Washington ("FDIC"), the senior creditor for the
Corporation's Pensacola, Florida property ("Pensacola Property"), filed an
application seeking a receiver for the Pensacola Property and a temporary
restraining order against the Corporation, the Corporation's subsidiary,
SunMedia, Inc., and Colonial Broadcasting Company, Inc. in the United States
District Court for the Northern District of Florida, Pensacola Division.  The
Corporation owes $4,891,000 in principal and interest to the FDIC, and has been
delinquent in payments on this debt since June 30, 1990.  Pursuant to an Agreed
Motion filed by counsel for the FDIC, the hearing on this matter, originally
scheduled for April 24, 1995, has been postponed by the Court for approximately
thirty (30) days while settlement negotiations are conducted between the
Corporation, SunMedia, Inc. and the FDIC.
