                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


       1.    Basis of Presentation

             The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for completed financial statements. In the opinion of management, the statements
include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments,
necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. The
results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of
the results for a full year.

             It is suggested that these consolidated financial statements be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included
in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December
31, 1994, as filed with the Commission.

ITEM 2.      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Results of Operations

       The Company's net broadcasting revenues increased 7.9% to $2,456,000 in
the six months ended June 30, 1995 from $2,276,000 in the six months ended June
30, 1994, and 16.2% to $1,488,000 in the three months ended June 30, 1995 from
$1,280,000 in the three months ended June 30, 1994. Net revenues in the six
months and three months ended June 30, 1995 as compared with the 1994 periods
increased as a result of higher net revenues at the Company's Flint, Michigan
radio stations. This increase was offset in part by the absence in the 1995
periods of any net revenues from a radio station in Southampton, New York,
formerly owned by the Company and sold in August 1994. Net revenues increased in
the Flint stations as a result of higher local and national advertising revenues
generated by increased economic activity in the market and nationally.

       Operating expenses before depreciation, amortization and corporate
expenses increased by 1.7% to $1,425,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1995
from $1,401,000 in the comparable 1994 period, and by 0.4% to $744,000 in the
three months ended June 30, 1995 from $741,000 in the three months ended June
30, 1994. In the six month and three month periods ended June 30, 1995 as
compared with the same periods in 1994, expenses increased slightly as a result
of increased operating expenses in both 1995 periods at the Flint stations,
offset by the absence in the 1995 periods of operating expenses in the
Southampton station formerly owned by the Company.

       Net broadcasting revenues in excess of operating expenses before
depreciation, amortization and corporate expenses (broadcast cash flow)
increased 17.9% to $1,031,000 in the six months ended June 30, 1995 from
$875,000 in the comparable 1994 period, and 37.8% to $744,000 in the three
months ended June 30, 1995 from $540,000 in the 1994 period. These increases
resulted from the above-described net broadcasting revenue increases, offset
minimally by the slight increases in operating expenses, in the 1995 periods
compared with 1994.

       Corporate expenses increased by 50.7% to $152,000 in the six months ended
June 30, 1995 from $101,000 in the comparable 1994 period, and by 19.9% to
$80,000 in the second quarter of 1995 from $67,000 in the comparable period in
1994. These increases were a result of higher payments in the 1995 periods for
employee compensation and professional fees.

       Interest expense increased by 9.9% to $411,000 in the first six months of
1995 from $374,000 in the corresponding period in 1994, and by 6.1% to $207,000
in the second quarter of 1995 from $195,000 in the comparable period in 1994.
These increases resulted from higher principal amounts of interest bearing debt
outstanding and higher interest rates during the 1995 periods.

       Preferred stock dividend requirement of subsidiaries decreased by 100.0%
to zero in the six months and the three months ended June 30, 1995 from $118,000
and $59,000, respectively, in the comparable periods of 1994. These decreases
resulted from the extinguishment of the preferred stock in a former subsidiary
of the Company as a result of the sale of the Company's former station in
Southampton in August 1994.

       As a result principally of higher net broadcasting revenues, minimal
increases in operating expenses and the elimination of the preferred stock
dividend requirement, net income increased to $317,000 in the six months ended
June 30, 1995 from $148,000 in the first six months of 1994, and to $363,000 in
the three months ended June 30, 1995 from $155,000 in the comparable period of
1994.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

       In the six months ended June 30, 1995, net cash provided by operating
activities was $236,000 compared with $316,000 in the comparable 1994 period.
Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents was $196,000 in 1995 compared with a
net decrease of $59,000 in 1994. The net decrease in cash and cash equivalents
was due primarily to capital expenditures in the 1995 period for a building
addition for increased sales and office space and for studio alterations at the
Company's Flint facilities.

       Historically, the Company's net cash provided by operating activities is
lower in its first and second quarters, and the Company expects such net cash to
increase in the balance of 1995.

       Based upon current interest rates, the Company believes its interest
expense for the balance of 1995 will be approximately $453,000. Scheduled debt
principal payments are $246,000. Corporate expenses and capital expenditures for
the remainder of 1995 are estimated to be approximately $198,000 and $9,000,
respectively. The Company expects to be able to meet such interest expense, debt
repayment, corporate expenses and capital expenditures, aggregating $906,000,
from net cash provided by operations and current cash balances.

       The Company is examining various alternatives for obtaining funds for
station acquisitions. No assurance can be given that the Company will
successfully consummate any such acquisitions or any such financing.
