2CCR-FM is a community radio station operated by Cumberland
Media Association Inc. We broadcast from Baulkham Hills,
a suburb of western Sydney.

We gained our community broadcasting license in late 1992 and
are licensed to serve the local government areas of Parramatta,
Holroyd and Baulkham Hills. The area is about 500 sq. Km. in size.
As with other community stations we broadcast at low power, some
200W to the north and 60W to the south, but our signal can be heard
in many parts of Sydney.

The station is run entirely by unpaid volunteers.  Members of the public
can join the Association and take part in station activities, including broadcasting. We are formatted to play New Adult Contemporary /
Smooth Jazz music each Monday to Friday from 6am to 7pm and from midnight to 6am.  This format is under the control of the Board of
management of the station.  Outside these hours individuals present a
variety of programs (see our program guide for further details).

Management of the station is under the control of an elected Board
of management.  The Association holds members' meetings each
quarter and an annual general meeting is held each August.  We also
publish our quarterly newsletter - "The Sound of Style".  This phrase
is used in two senses.  Firstly it describes our format of New Adult Contemporary / Smooth Jazz music and it is also a station
identification by which we are commonly known.

Our income is derived from membership fees, fundraising
activities and sponsorship income.

We play community announcements on behalf of non-profit groups
and we are involved in a number of community activities such as
the Orange Blossom Festival in Baulkham Hills and the Holroyd
Family Festival.  We have received awards for our community
service.

2CCR-FM is Baulkham Hills Council's official station to broadcast
information in the case of bushfires, floods and other major emergencies.
In those situations we broadcast up-to-the-minute and accurate details.
Residents have been asked by the Council to tune into 90.5FM instead of
using the phone lines which need to be kept clear.  We are happy to
provide this service.

We conduct a course in broadcasting in conjunction with the Parramatta College.

We are located in the Balcombe Heights community buildings at
92 Seven Hills Road, Baulkham Hills.  These heritage buildings
were formerly used as the Masonic Home and School.
