FM Toyohashi - History

History

FM Toyohashi first started broadcasting in Toyohashi and on the trains of the Toyohashi Railway on August 18, 1992 as a mini FM radio station with a very low output power, which just enabled it qualify as a community FM radio station. Once it became established with an assigned frequency of 84.3 MHz, it raised its output power to 1 Watts in 1993, to 10 Watts in 1995 and to 20 Watts in 1999, resulting in a much larger broadcasting area.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “In history as in human life, regret does not bring back a lost moment and a thousand years will not recover something lost in a single hour.”
    —Stefan Zweig (18811942)

    “What is most interesting and valuable in it, however, is not the materials for the history of Pontiac, or Braddock, or the Northwest, which it furnishes; not the annals of the country, but the natural facts, or perennials, which are ever without date. When out of history the truth shall be extracted, it will have shed its dates like withered leaves.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “So in accepting the leading of the sentiments, it is not what we believe concerning the immortality of the soul, or the like, but the universal impulse to believe, that is the material circumstance, and is the principal fact in this history of the globe.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
