Ravenshaw Radio on Air

Adding yet another feather to its cap, Ravenshaw University here has begun its own FM radio channel. Named as ‘Ravenshaw radio', the community channel is now on a trial run.

“We hope the full-fledged radio channel will go air from the second week of July,” said the administration dean of the university Bijay Mishra on Wednesday.

The radio channel would be available to FM radio users within 8 to 10 km radius from the university campus, he said adding that the channel would be available on 90.4 MHz.

Initially, the radio channel would broadcast programmes for only three hours a day from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m.

The same programmes would be repeated again the next day from 9 a.m. to 12 noon.

Besides career counselling and academic activities, the channel would also broadcast community-based programmes like music and songs, interactive sessions, phone-in and interviews.
