- Ice_FM abstract "Ice FM was a local radio station in Cromwell, New Zealand which commenced operation in July 1996. It was started because Cromwell was the only town in the Lakes District region that had no radio station of its own. The studio was based at the Top of The Mall in the Cromwell Shopping Centre.The actual FM transmitter was based on Hospital Hill and broadcast on 100 watts, which was also the then-location of the TV Transmitters for Cromwell, TV1, TV2, and TV3 which were relays from the Obelisk transmitters. The relay stations existed existed to infill the shadow areas of Cromwell.Any Obelisk based transmitters were primarily directed towards Alexandra. Their transmissions back then, as now, did not cover Cromwell due to shadows in their transmission path, plus the fact the transmitters being so high up, have blockers on their antennas to ensure they only transmit to certain areas, as 360 degree coverage was causing interference outside their intended broadcast area.Whilst Ice FM started in Cromwell it quickly set up a transmitter within a few months on 91.9FM and this was based at the Alexandra Airport. In November 1998 a transmitter was installed in Queenstown based at Fern Hill on 90.4 FM.Music played was from the 1960s to the present day with all announcers and voiceovers local.At the time the station started it was amongst a handful of stations in New Zealand using radio automation based on computers. A French system was employed called "Dalet".Regular announcers on the station were Stuart Campbell, Craig Stephen, Gary Fraser, Chris Diack, Paul Gestro (ex Classic Gold in Ranfurly), Becky Parker, Andrew Munsey, Mark McCarron and Rachael Turner.Craig Stephen, local musician and technician, was also technician for the engineering side of the station.In November 2001 Ice FM went off the air as it was leased to Alexandra man Mike Bain who replaced it with a local station called Blue Skies FM. The operation was moved totally to Alexandra, and used two of the frequencies 99.9 FM and 91.9 FM.The Queenstown operation of Ice FM remained operating and changed its name to Next FM and still continues to this day.".
