Bucketts Radio - Still Here!

Saturday 30 May, 2020

Here is an update on happenings at Bucketts Radio for the first half of a very tumultuous 2020.

Early in the year it was decided by the committee that, due to severe financial constraints, we would be unable to maintain operations beyond May and an announcement was made to that effect. This generated an element of concern from locals and through the advocacy of these supporters we were able to benefit from an ‘Emergency/Survival’ grant through the NSW Government, which has allowed us to remain broadcasting for the foreseeable future.

Our attention now turns to the determination of a major grant application that has been ongoing for some years, to establish a new “Transmission Antenna” which will enable far greater coverage around the area. Our future now depends on the success of this grant application and the establishment of the new tower.

Needless to say, the continued support of our existing members is paramount, with a reminder that membership renewals are due for year 20/21. Also, extra volunteers are needed to fill announcer slots left vacant by recent departures.

How about the idea of having your own radio show, where you can express yourself and display your creativity with your own selection of music? It is very easy and full training is given in Programming and Studio Operations. Or perhaps you have untapped potential in other fields, such as IT, Administration, or HR Management.

In that vein, we look forward to an upcoming contribution from students at Gloucester High School to provide a community news program, to start soon.
