The station was officially launched at noon on June 19, 2008 under a temporary special CRTC licence to gauge listener interest. The overwhelming and enthusiastic response from the public resulted in approval for a full licence on September 15, 2009. The CJQC Radio Society, a not-for-profit organization, has been operating QCCR Radio since June 2012 from its headquarters atop the post office building in downtown Liverpool.
Everyone at QCCR is committed to making it the best community radio station in Nova Scotia. We encourage the public to provide new ideas and input on how to best make this happen. If you'd like to send us your suggestions, please feel free to get in touch with us.
And if you support the idea of local community radio, please consider volunteering and/or donating to the station. We always need volunteers to help with a variety of things here at the station; and as for donations, any amount is welcome, as every little bit helps keep QCCR live and on the air.
We are a community Museum dedicated to the accomplishments of Hank Snow and host to the Nova Scotia Country Music Hall of Fame. The Hank Snow Home Town Museum was opened in 1997. The idea for the Museum was created by a group of Hank Snow enthusiasts that put together a society in 1991. That society created the Annual Hank Snow Tribute – which is now on its 30th year! That festival helped fundraise enough money to renovate the old CN Train station which has now become the home of the Hank Snow Home Town Museum celebrating the life and accomplishments of Hank Snow. Under normal circumstances we welcome country music and Hank Snow fans from all over the world and is still governed by a dedicated group of board members committed to keeping the memory of Hank Snow alive!
