We recently fired up the station camera and found some really interesting photos from the past few months...
Technical Director Tony Quincy '11 and General Manager Schuyler 'Sketch' Evans '10 saw Kevin James at a World Championship Fighting event we were attending... James' body guard did not want James to take the picture with Tony and Sketch but James allowed them to take the shot. So go see Mall Cop!

Since DCR's transition from a terrestrial AM signal to a purely web based platform, we have been working a new logo for DCR that reflects that transition. All of our old logos showcased 1340 which has become irrelevant. Part of our update of DCR has been a transition away from WDCR, to either calling the station DCR or WebDCR. Our Internet Director Ricky Melgares '11 created this logo with the intent of it being stylish, modern, expanding our new WebDCR brand and also reinforcing that DCR is still Dartmouth College's Official college radio station. Differentiating between DCR and FRD has been a part of our larger goal; branding Dartmouth Broadcasting as a multi-faceted student run business that has educational components.

The last few weeks have been a very exciting time for DCR from a technical standpoint. We have actually begun addressing problems with the WebDCR studio that have been present since at least the fall of '06. There have been several key factors that have lead to movement on the technical front. The first namely being two substantial equipment donations, the first being a Broadcast Audio console coming from Cox Radio (as secured by past GM Eric McDonald '04). Operations Heath Cole and General Manager Schuyler 'Sketch' Evans '10 drove down to Connecticut to pick up the board from Eric's stations and took a tour of his facilities. It was a very exciting and long day. On the way home Heath and Sketch were hit with perhaps the worst downpour coming up 91 that either of them had ever seen (One car did not make it and the front was all smashed in). The second being a very well maintained Auditronics board, in fact, the same model as the boards sitting in WebDCR and the FM Studio. George Whitehead Dartmouth '61, Thayer '62 was able to get us the Auditronics board from NHPR due to his close connections with that station. George has come up to the stations multiple times from his home across the state in order to trouble shoot and give WebDCR the tender loving care that it really needs. Not only has he been working on the studios, he has also been working with students and imparting valuable knowledge to such interested students as Technical Director Tony Quincy '11 and WebDCR Program Director Shirine Sajjadi '11.

Relay for Life was a huge success, bringing in more than $23,000 during this recession. All said and done, the event with set up and break down took more than 20 hours straight. 99Rock was at center stage and lent our sound system to the different acts that entertained the Relay for Life participants. We also did some entertaining of our own, including DJ Grimmee (former Marketing Director Andy Sloan '11) and Blair Randal '11 taking requests between 11 and 1am. There were hours of fun times and we were able to enjoy live music, comedy groups and other acts. I just wanted to thank all of the Dartmouth Broadcasting staff who made an appearance and contributed what they could.
Amongst other things, this event was a live remote. The first two hours of the remote consisted of doing my afternoon shift in its entirety on location - including the 7 O'clock Cage Match. After the first two hours of the live remote, we phoned/martied in two breaks an hour until 10am the following morning.
A special thanks to all of our members who participated in Relay.
