Alive Christian Radio was formed in 2004 as a result of two people
who shared a dream. Local Christian worker, David Currie and Church
pastor, Mark Smith had a coffee together and began to share with each
other their dream of having a Christian radio station which would be
widely accessible on FM in the Dumfries area.
They
invited interested people to get together and after a lot of hard work
and occasional tears, Alive was launched. The first broadcast period
used a 28 day Restricted Service Licence during July and August 04, on
87.7FM and online through aliveradio.net. Over 50 people were invloved
in the project, mainly as presenters. In 2005 we ran the project again
with even greater levels of success, and encouraged by this we decided
to run once again in 2006.
On 11th May 2007, we were approved for a Community Radio Licence by Ofcom, with the intention to begin broadcasting towards the end of 2008 |
