CHMR Radio (Closed)

CHMR Radio (91.7) was the Mohawk Collage campus station until 1999. At that time the station changed frequency and call sign to CIOI-FM 101.5.
This was the original studio when it was located on the second floor of the Student Centre. It was at that time, not accessible for wheelchairs.
The lower level had three studios, Studio One, Studio Two, and Production. The main level had the offices, a lounge, and the music library.
In 2005, the station was made accessible by removing the second (bottom) level, and expanding into the room next door, which was an (unused) study room.
In 2011, the Student's Association sold the station to the Media Studies Department, who then moved the studios to an vacant series of rooms next to the Media Studies Department in the "F" Wing.
The new station is called INDI 101.

Here are some photos from when CHMR was operational (Around 1996):

The main studio, where a single announcer would sit. On the other side of the window was Studio Two, where interviews and talk shows were conducted.

This board had to be replaced in 1998, because someone spilled a Coke into it.

LOL. That is why drinks are never allowed in control rooms.
Nice post, I love college radio.

The sign said "Anybody caught trespassin will be shot on sight"
So I jumped on the fence and I yelled at the house,
"Hey! What gives you the right?" http://www.flickr.com/photos/evman/
