All About Radio CIMN (Not (sun)

Hard to believe, but there are still people in 'Charlottetown who donlt know what the U.P.E.I. Student Radio Station is all about. So I'll try to present a few facts.

. The station's‘call letters are CIMN, which stands for Campus, Infor- mation, music, and news.

We were previously known

as CSUR or Radio U.P.E.I. Our call letters~officially became CIMN on October 30,‘ 1974 when we were granted

a broadcasting license

from the Canadian Radio

and Television Commission. Under the terms of the lise ence, we were not allowed

to use CSUR and CIMN was

the only station I.D. sub— mitted that was approved by C.R.T.C. Now, this license is the same type of lisence granted to any other radio station in Canada. The dif- ference is that we can only broadcast under a power output of 20 watts. This gives the station only en— ough power to cover the en- tire UniVersity area. We accept advertising from Charlottetown firms, pro- duce our own commercials

in most cases, and do the same things that the largest statiOns in Canada do; only we do them on a smaller scale. Perhaps, in a few years, we Will apply to

the CRTC for a permit to boost our power output enough to cover all of

the Charlottetown area. There is also a posibility, of the radio station getting a channel on the T.V. cable when it is installed in Char—

lottetown, but these events are in the future-

Before the year is over, Radio CIMN will have installed a complete new studio. So in- stead of single studio we now have, we will have a Mater Control room and a production' room. This should increase the broadcasting quality im— mensely. I

Just recently, Radio CIMN received a Xaviera Hol- lander tape from U.N.B. This tape was recorded live at a talk show with Ms. Hollander at U.N.B. and was made avail- able to CIMN through the A.A. U.B. tape exchange program.
