A Surprise Visit to CHUM Brockville
(or "the CHUMs - BOB, JR, and Scott")
By Ben MacMurchy, August 5, 2003 - updated December 16, 2003
CHUM Brockville in the Point era, 601 Stewart Blvd.
August 5 was moving day for yours truly, and on the way to Cornwall, John Henderson & I pulled into the Stewart Boulevard studios of Brockville's 104.9 JRfm (CFJR-FM) and 103.7 BOB FM (CJPT-FM), to the surprise of classmate & part-time CHUM Brockville producer Leslie Scott.
Six antenna bays, a CHUM engineer (L) & UCBC Belleville GM Gary Hoogvliet.
John & I got a bit of a surprise when we swung into the parking lot.  Six FM antenna bays were sitting outside the garage.  After a quick chat with the engineers, we found out these bays will be used for United Christian Broadcasters Canada's new Belleville station at 102.3 FM.
CHUM Brockville production.
CHUM Brockville (and Kingston) just recently upgraded to Scott Studios SS32 from DCS. 
BOB's control room.
JR's control room, and Ali Maclean.
Thanks Leslie, and I'll miss you!
