Previous Minutes:
The minutes of the last meeting were unavailable.

Financial Report:
John Muir reports that we are doing fairly well financially. We have the
equivalent of ten months loan payments in the bank.

General Manager's Report:
Turntables donated by C.K.P.T. will be installed in Studio A.. These
turntables will play records at 78 r.p.m. John Muir hopes we will have
access to more used equipment as commercial stations devolve.  As a side
effect of restructuring at commercial stations, TR may become the only
community based station in the area. We will continue to emphasise a
student first approach, while broadening our mandate to include
community access.  John is having trouble getting manuals and
measurements from Promethean.  John is going to approach Nicole
Bauberger about TR signage. He also reported that we have received a
grant to hire a summer programme co-ordinator for twenty weeks.

Upon a motion duly made, seconded and carried be it resolved that Scott
Gordon has been awarded an honourary membership at Trent Radio.

was smooth. Barbara is producing a playlist for S.O.C.A.N.. St. Anne's
school produced a French immersion programme. The Peterborough Labour
