Hello Community Radio Fans

We have acquired 70% of the equipment we need to start broadcasting, including our new Nicom radio transmitter, a mixer board, a Sure mic and stand and of course our antennae, tower and related cables/connectors.

If you have sound equipment that you could lend or sell, let us know at info@smithersradio.com.

A small group of volunteers started working on the studio (back room of Onesky) over the weekend. Under the guidance of Phelix (our volunteer carpenter) and Abdel (program director) we pulled out the old floor and started leveling the gravel foundation in preparation for the pouring of concrete sometime this week (currently looking for a generous concrete manufacturer).

Upcoming goals/tasks

October 14th - Industry Canada is coming by to test our signal. we are aiming at having our studio mostly complete and equipment setup and working. Let me know if you have some time to assist us in setting up our studio. info@smithersradio.com
