Important Notice: Signal Interference Affecting FM 100.5

Dear Listeners,

We are experiencing issues that are affecting our FM 100.5 signal. Over the past few weeks, you may have noticed intermittent disruptions, such as weaker signal strength and background noise during broadcasts.

After thorough investigation, we discovered that the construction of a new building near our studio is blocking the line-of-sight between our rooftop antenna and the Mount Seymour transmitter. As construction continues, this interference is expected to worsen, causing further interruptions to our FM signal.

What About Our Online Stream?

The good news is that our online stream remains stable and unaffected. You can continue listening to us online through our website or your favourite streaming platform without any issues.

How We’re Addressing the FM Signal Issue

We are actively working on a solution to restore our FM 100.5 signal. However, the necessary technical upgrades will come with additional operational costs.

How You Can Help

To help us cover the costs of fixing this issue, we are asking for your support. Donations will directly contribute to the necessary technical improvements that will keep our FM signal strong and uninterrupted. Any amount is greatly appreciated!

To donate or learn more about how you can support us, please visit Donate.

Thank You for Your Support!

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding as we work to resolve this issue. We are grateful for your continued support, whether you’re listening on FM or online!

Stay tuned for further updates.

The conversation lab is about building bridges into our community and learning from each other. This project intersects with my PhD program with the Social Justice Institute at UBC.  Giving community groups, not for profit organizations, and changemakers a voice to talk about those things that are most important to them. I want to research and study the science, psychology, cultural, and emotional components of conversation, and what they have in common to gain insight and improve on existing knowledge of how we engage with each other whether about climate, race, gender, culture, politics, or social justice issues.  I believe this work can contribute to positive social change. The Conversation Lab is produced by CFRO FM (Co-op Radio) in Vancouver's downtown east side on the unceded territories of the xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-waututh) Nations.
