October & November 2010
Station Began
Test Signal Broadcasting
Greetings From Andy McNabb, CEO - McNabb Broadcasting/FM 90.5 (full text originally published Oct. 2010 when the station's test signal launched - edited for brevity on Dec. 17, 2010)
Thanks Be To God, With Whom "All Things Are Possible" (Matt 19:26)
FM 90.5 began test signal broadcasting at 4:05 pm, Thurs. Oct. 14, 2010, featuring "Stronger" by Hillsong:
Sam McKnight of McKnight’s Fine Flowers and Gifts gently told me in the summer of 2010 that “there will be challenges, but that’s okay…there will be setbacks, but that’s okay”. I admired his patience, but I didn’t think I’d need it.
The Great Adventure Little did I know that we would lose our dearly loved Vice-President, Don Currie, in a continuing leave of absence due to family health challenges, or that there would be five separate transmitter site installation windows that got postponed due to circumstances beyond anybody’s control – including having to switch towers, multiple lightning storm days, and the death of our master contractor’s wife – that caused a total reallocation of the resources of time, people and money, and replacing and rescheduling up to 10 people’s crews to get the job done.
Yet God is working all things together for good, and we’re now on the air.
With Thanks To You!
Many thanks for your support, your patience, your prayers, and your encouragement in coming alongside us for this journey. May we be at least as much a blessing to you, as you and your relationships are to us.
And the great adventure is just beginning. We look forward to serving you - always feel free to tell us what you want your local radio station to do to meet your listening needs and how we can best meet the needs of the people of Peterborough and area.
May God bless you and prosper you, Andy McNabb McNabb Broadcasting/FM 90.5 Peterborough
