I imagine this is because you're probably not hitting the typical 
demographic.  You're more likely to find people that know Linux *and* 
Radio Broadcasting in a broadcasting forum, not a Linux forum.

Perhaps if you describe what kind of tasks the software needs to 
perform you'll get some answers.  I'm not at all familiar with what is 
involved in "jock talk, satellite feeds and on-air callers", from a 
technical point-of-view.  Obviously, there are plenty of music 
players/streamers in the FOSS community.  There might be solutions for 
your other requirements, but it's hard to say without understanding 
those requirements.
