About me:
What are the Networks of Bulldog Radio?
Bulldog Radio is a 4-star registered student organization on the campus of Ferris State University in Big Rapids, Michigan. Our stations are operated completely by students, from the production, to the engineering, and everything in between. The Networks of Bulldog Radio operates two stations, Bulldog Radio and FSU Info 530. We also offer mobile disc jockey services to campus offices and RSOs, which allows our organization to operate efficiently all year long, as we are a self-funded, independent University entity.
What kind of things can I hear on Bulldog Radio?
Bulldog Radio airs student radio shows containing news, information, sports, music and more, in addition to our sponsor shows of Inside the CCHA radio (pertaining to Bulldog Men’s Ice Hockey), and Listen In with Frank Jenks (looking for the meaning in the music we listen to). When students aren’t on the air, our station features the 55 Minute Mess of Music, which contains classic rock, alternative rock and the best new rock (before most other radio stations). Bulldog Radio also provides information on what’s going on at Ferris State University. If you want your Ferris or Big Rapids event publicized on Bulldog Radio, contact us at least 2 weeks in advance.
How can I listen to Bulldog Radio?
While we call ourselves Bulldog Radio, the “radio” in our name is more an idea than a reality. Since the Federal Communications Commission has not licensed any new radio stations in the State of Michigan in several years, Ferris is unable to operate an AM or FM station. Therefore, we have taken a non-traditional route by providing our “radio” signal on television. You can hear the station on channel 21 Campus Cable, or Channel 21 Charter Communications in Mecosta County. We also provide a live 24-hour webcast of our signal available at www.bulldogradio.org.
Do you offer mobile DJ services?
Yes, Bulldog Radio’s Mobile DJ Services are offered to campus organizations and departments for a very low cost. For more information on these services or to apply online, visit the Mobile DJ Services page.
Do you do any kind of mobile broadcasting?
Bulldog Radio has recently acquired the equipment to perform remote broadcasts. This allows us to do remotes at different events on campus and transmit them live to our audience. However, we are still in the process of learning how to use the equipment properly and training new members on the equipment.
What are some of the systems that you use to stay on the air?
Bulldog Radio broadcasts using a straight coaxial connection between studio A, located in Masselink Hall’s Telecommunications complex, to the head end of our cable television system on campus. The signal from studio B, used for production and news/weather, is transferred using CAT 5 wiring in Masselink’s network routers into studio A (our main broadcast studio). Our signal is processed several times by high-end limiter/compressors/gates, as well as amplifiers and effect processors by Behringer. The signal on the cable networks is processed in full stereo sound, which allows for a better signal than any FM radio station. To mix our audio, the console used is an AEQ BC-300 with 8 inputs and two microphones. We use only ElectroVoice microphones in our studios, including our main mic, the famous RE-20. We also operate our own automation system, which contains over 2,000 songs (and counting), as well as our commercials and special productions. Jazler Radio Automation is in charge of our station while the students are away and not broadcasting. We like to refer to it as being in “auto pilot” or “on shuffle.” You know it as the 55 Minute Mess of Music.
Why should I listen to your station over traditional radio?
While the Networks of Bulldog Radio are partners with our local stations, we ask students and community members to keep in mind that we are not here to make money; rather, we are here to entertain our listeners and allow them to enjoy all that the students of Ferris State University produce for them. As mentioned previously, we are a non-commercial station, so we won’t fill our station with commercials or promotions. The music we play in our 55 Minute Mess of Music is classic rock, alternative rock, hip-hop, pop, top 40 and rhythmic hits. We’re an affiliate of ERG Music, which gives us the newest chart-topping hits twice monthly. Bulldog Radio also has one of the biggest collections of music with almost 2,000 CDs containing over 4,000 songs, in addition to a collection of 1,000 vinyl albums from the 70s through the early 90s. Our station is centered around you, the listener, and many student shows allow for requests, so listen in!
