City Park Cottage

City Park Radio started in the 1970s operating out of the tech college, if I recall correctly.

Cottage

I do know that in 1995 they were operating out of the former caretaker's cottage in the city park, and the studio was in the room up the top there, with cobbled together equipment gathered over the years and a program that only ran from 5 pm on weekdays. At the same time though, they were building new studios in the stables out the back, which is where they broadcast from now, 18 hours a day (on 103.7 FM).

A decade later, the studios aren't shiny and new anymore, but they're still purpose built.

I did find the little radio museum more interesting. It was never set up right when I was going there.

Old radios! )

The local radio station's current slogan is: You'll never know what we're going to play next.

Maybe it's just me, but I'm don't think that's a positive.
