Can you hear us now? BayFM flicks switch on new transmitter site

    Thursday, 9 January 2025 12:13

    The new BayFM transmitter went online Thursday morning.

    If you couldn't hear us before, try again. 

    BayFM flicked the switch on its new transmitter site Thursday morning, after some brief interruptions during which equipment and signal were tested by Industry Canada, the federal department that regulates radio.

    The new signal will boost BayFM's signal from 50 watts to 2,760 watts and also increase the height of the antenna, all of which means a stronger signal and further range.

    Let us know where you're listening at 100.1 FM! Text or call (709) 632-5555.
