Calamity Jane Posted March 17, 2006 Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 great news! We're not so far away, I wonder if we'll be able to receive the signal?will you be hosting a show? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. J Posted March 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2006 Thanks CJ.Yeah i'm quite excited really, even tho in the beginning I think the frequency will be somewhat limited. Ottawa (and area) has some pretty powerful radio people who are rather protective of their market.The thing that excites me the most is that all programming (music/interviews/spoken word etc) will be done locally and not by some national comglomerate and yes I'm hoping to be involved in some capacity.

Dr. J Posted March 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2006 They say it takes from 6 - 12 months once approved to get on-air. The motto for the town of Perth is "Make Haste Slowly" so we'll have to wait and see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
