GenesisFM - Where it all began


GenesisFM
is a low power radio station broadcasting in New Zealand to the city of Porirua and town of Otaki on 88.1fm, and the city of Palmerston North on 88.7fm.

GenesisFM is intended to provide a substantial intellectual challenge to New Zealand’s dominant secular/atheistic culture and its evolutionary foundation - and such cultures anywhere they are found in the world. It does so by addressing that most important of questions: ‘Is life, the universe, and everything, the product of thought or the product of chance? Has the world been made or simply arisen through blind, purposeless, material processes?’ The answer GenesisFM emphatically gives to this question is that we are here because we have been created, thus have a Creator to whom we owe our existence and to whom we are responsible.

 

GenesisFM is using a 42 + hour pre-recorded program set on repeat play and is on air 24 hours a day. This allows you to learn about the station, tune in, and listen to the program in whole or in part, as many times as you like. This program will be added to until around 4 days of program is available.

 

GenesisFM uses low-power transmitters. In Porirua it is broadcasting from an excellent transmission site in Ascot Park and so has good coverage of the Porirua area - despite its low power.

But…it will not reach all areas!

Signal reception depends on a number of factors: If the top of Ascot Park near the water tank is seen, or the sky above it is seen at a shallow angle, reception should be good, in many cases just like any other station. Reception can also vary depending on weather conditions. The quality of the aerial on your radio is very important. The better the aerial the better the reception. In some places aerials may have to be directed or extended to pick it up, or radios moved to a better reception area - e.g., a window facing Ascot Park, or a place where there is good signal reflection. Signals can reflect from surprising places. Much of the western hills of Tawa can receive the signal. Car radios seem good at picking it up - however it will come and go due to the varying quality of reception in the areas the vehicle moves in, and again, reception depends on the quality of the aerial on the car.

Reception in Palmerston North is generally pretty good, allowing for the provisos mentioned above.

But don’t let the limitations hold you back!  
Overcome them, or tune in via the web, enjoy the great music - and be informed and challenged by what you hear.
