The radio station has been operating at reduced capacity since its transmission facility was destroyed in an arson attack last year.
But after hundreds of hours of volunteer work from presenter Hank Kreemers and generous support from the community, the station can be heard in all the usual areas.
“It’s been a long road to get back to normal. We’re all volunteers and to have thousands of dollars worth of equipment stolen or torched was devastating,” Hank said.
“It was looking pretty grim for a while and we were all wondering how we were going to come back.
“But bit by bit we’ve pieced it all back together and are back to normal. We have the community to thank for that.
“We know it’s been frustrating for our listeners who haven’t been able to tune in to their regular programming, but we’re happy to say it’s all as it was before.”
When Hank started sourcing material and getting quotes for the rebuild, he was stunned at how many offered large discounts or didn’t charge anything.
“It’s been of horrible situation for everyone to go through but the silver lining has been realising the amazing community we live in,” he said.
“If it wasn’t for the community helping us so much, we couldn’t have got back up and running so quickly, if at all.
“We’ll be publishing a list of everyone who helped us out in The Telegraph shortly, to make sure everyone knows how sincerely thankful we are.”
