SONiCs Bids Adieu to Jerry Finn (1970-2008)
Tune in this week as we pay a little tribute to punk/indie rock producer Jerry Finn who passed away last Thursday after being taken off of life supoort after suffering a debilitating massive brain hemorrhage last month. Noted for his work with Morrissey, Jawbreaker, Green Day and other artists, Jerry was a fave producer of ours, and very underrated one whose prime work was overshadowed by his bread n' butter work with more mainstream punk pop artists.
Other usual stuff as well: vinyl set, sonics selection, track from way back, the usual goodies...
Hooked on SONiCs Tuesdays from 6-8pm on CJLO

The Day the Radio Inspector Comes
If you're tuning into CJLO online today, you will probably notice that we're not playing our normal programming. We're sorry to disappoint, but you will be happy to know that this is a very important step in our final CRTC / Industry Canada approval process. Until this evening (Tuesday, August 26th,) we will be playing our test programme on both our internet stream and our over-the-air broadcast for testing purposes. Once everything is cleared up, we will continue to play the test programme on 1690AM, but will return to our regularily scheduled shows online.
Be sure to check out CJLO.com for more updates. For the curious, we also have an AM blog, full of the trials and tribulations of getting an AM station up on the air. You have no excuse to be uninformed!
**** Note ****
Monday - 12:30pm: The radio inspector is sick today, so all of this should be postponed to tomorrow. We will keep you informed as things are decided.
Tuesday - 11:15am: The inspector is feeling better and is at our site right now. We are now live on the air with our test programme. Tune your radio to 1690AM and have a listen!
Tuesday - 2:30pm: We can officially announce that the CJLO AM On-Air Testing Period has begun. For information on the progression of our testing period, have a glance at our AM blog.
