JAY DOUGLAS
CFCO Chatham, Ont.
January, 1967
(Contributor: Roy
Geldart)
We pay our first visit to CFCO Chatham. a station whose roots can be
traced back to 1926, when a local butcher, John Beardall, founded 10BT
and ran it out of his home from a homemade transmitter.
10BT became CFCO in 1928
at 250 watts. In 1930, as the station started to grow, studios were
moved from Beardall's home to the William Pitt Hotel in Chatham.
Beardall remained with the
station until 1962, when he retired ending a 36-year association with
the station he founded. He died in 1969, aged 77.
Enjoy Jay Douglas on CFCO
from January, 1967 ... in the
Aircheck of the
Week.
