About

The Waiheke Community Radio Trust has established Waiheke Radio as a not-for-profit, community radio service for Waiheke Island. This service provides radio programming that reflects the unique character and needs of the Waiheke community. In addition the service offers facilities, advice, training and technical support for Waiheke people to make and broadcast their own radio programmes.

The Trust has been granted a month-by-month community lease on a space in Artworks, the old Beach Radio site, and has made numerous modifications to that space to serve the community with a fully functional radio station.

Waiheke Radio broadcasts on Low Power FM on 107.4 from Oneroa to Surfdale, and 88.3 from Surdale to Onetangi.

News

Up until recently we have had excellent technical expertise but unfortunately the person who had this expertise has now moved on.

We have some problems with our desk (phone line, bleeding from programme to audition line out, some noise on one of the aux line inputs) and getting a clean signal from our studio to our transmission site (about 400m line of sight.

We are very keen to hear from any tech people on Waiheke who could help resolve these issues.

If you, or some one you know of, or someone you can recommend, can help we would love to hear from you. We are very keen to resolve our technical issues by our Labour Weekend launch.
