Trent Radio 92.7 CFFF-FM

Trent Radio 92.7 CFFF-FM is a Peterborough community station with current local music, news and volunteer programming plus a direct no-fee form for eligible local or locally relevant releases.

Trent Radio 92.7 CFFF-FM is a student-founded community radio station in Peterborough. Its current first-party homepage says the producer-oriented station began as a Trent University student club in 1968, is operated as a registered charity and shares its broadcast resource with the Peterborough community. The CRTC renewed CFFF-FM Peterborough's community-radio licence through August 31, 2030. Trent Radio's current summer season runs from May 3 through August 22, 2026. Its June 29 schedule documents live music and spoken-word programming across Indigenous music, hip-hop, jazz, blues, electronic, reggae, country, folk and other genres, with local news, community announcements, Canadian music, interviews and volunteer-produced programs. A July 10, 2026 audio report on Peterborough's Rock Camp 4 Girls* supplies additional current local-music activity. The homepage currently links the station's local-music guide and form. The policy exclusively processes music that is local or locally relevant: recordings produced in the region, work involving local musicians, songs or content, artists connected to Trent University or Fleming College, or touring artists performing locally. Locally relevant touring releases remain in the programming archive for 12 months after the artist's latest regional show. The station-owned form asks for artist and label identity, a biography and local connection, release name, genres, release year, track list, inspiration and favourite tracks, digital delivery, local or student status, Canadian-content status and consent to the Local Content Management Project and Radio Free Peterborough. Digital releases may use Trent Radio's Dropbox request for MP3 files or a Bandcamp download code. The form says submitters can expect a status response within one to two weeks. No submission fee or airplay guarantee is stated. Trent Radio is producer-oriented, has no music director and does not direct programmers' selections, chart submissions or provide tracking, so acceptance into an archive never guarantees rotation or airplay. MusicList publishes only the station-linked local-music form. An optional paid external distribution suggestion receives no route credit and is not published. Named staff and programmers, personal and role inboxes, telephone numbers, street and postal details, physical-mail instructions, individual-show contacts, the PSA and interview routes, program proposals, donations, private form values, files, download codes, submissions and correspondence remain excluded.
