21. The following are specifically related to E-contests and E-Mail Club promotions on Boerne Radio:

A. All appropriate information in required fields must be entered correctly and completely or you will be disqualified.

B. To win a prize you must reside within the listening area of Boerne Radio as defined at the exclusive discretion Boerne Radio management.

C. Any problems with the internet or email are not Boerne Radio‘s responsibility.

D. Contestants who register to participate on our website may be required to produce a printed copy of proof of registration before being allowed to participate in the contest.

E. Due to the nature of our programs that are heard on-line over the internet, contests may not be heard at all on Boerne Radio. Contests heard on the radio station’s internet audio stream may be slightly delayed from the time the contests are heard on the broadcast station, and will be running behind the broadcast signal. Thus, all contests heard on the internet are delayed. This delay can last for as much as 30 seconds or more. This means that when Boerne Radio contests are played that require a specific caller to telephone the radio station (such as “Caller number 9 when you hear the sound effect”), listeners to the on-line audio stream may be at a disadvantage in participating over those listeners who hear the contests on-air.

22. A copy of these rules are available during business hours at the Boerne Radio Studio  at 153 S. Main Street.
