electric 103 logo

Click on the Electric 103 logo above to listen to SAIT's student radio station. Windows Media Player will open and start an audio stream within a few seconds. We think you will be impressed with the high quality of our stereo audio when played on a good speaker system.

We broadcast 24 hours a day year-round on the internet, and can also be heard in the Calgary region on Shaw Cable FM at 103.5. Electric 103 is operated by the Radio Option students of the Radio, Television and Broadcast News Program. Students from the Broadcast News Option provide most of the news, sports and weather coverage.
