Since 2011, Bay of Islands Radio has maintained a full-time internet stream, broadcasting programs from a wide variety of topics and music genres produced by its volunteers. The station also broadcasts many local events that are of interest to the public, such as the bi-weekly live broadcast of Corner Brook City Council. The station is registered as a non-profit organization, and is operated entirely by volunteers from the surrounding communities of the Bay of Islands.

The station was founded in partnership with the Grenfell Campus Student Union (GCSU) and College of the North Atlantic, and was operated on the premises of Memorial University's Grenfell Campus until January 2015; it moved to a new facility on Brook Street at this time, which was donated by the City of Corner Brook.[1]

On February 12, 2016, the station submitted an application to the CRTC for a license to operate a low power FM community radio station. The license approval was issued on October 6, 2016.[2]

On November 5, 2017, the station launched its new broadcast signal on 100.1 FM in the Corner Brook area. Its transmitter is located in the Humber Heights area of Corner Brook. The new signal reaches as far as McIvers and Frenchman's Cove to the west, Little Rapids to the east, and Logger's School Road to the south.
