Description
There is a real operator behind this name and it is not an automated themed stream. Radio Tambrin 92.7FM, which calls itself "The Voice of Tobago", was founded on 8 June 1998 by George and Carol Leacock and describes itself as Tobago's first radio station and the only station in Trinidad and Tobago founded by Tobagonians, staffed by Tobagonians and appreciated by Tobagonians. It carries news, call-in and discussion programmes, sports and music around the clock, and its own site runs a Death Announcements service, an events page and a page for its own Happy Lost Sailors Band.

Contact route
A contact page with a message form on its own domain, a studio telephone line with published opening hours of Monday to Sunday 8AM to 8PM, an email address (obfuscated on the page), a WhatsApp chat widget, Facebook and Instagram accounts, and a separate submission route for death announcements. Its own words on the contact page are that the team is committed to excellent service both on and off the air and that listeners should call or come in.

Kind
Live and presenter-led, shift by shift, with two named announcers sharing most weekday and Saturday slots. Nothing on the site suggests automated playout.

Worth knowing
Its own site sends listeners to a third-party directory to hear it. The "Live Stream" item in its navigation links out to a Streema listing, and the only audio the site itself embeds is a YouTube live channel. A licensed FM broadcaster with a full named roster publishes no direct stream address of its own, which is worth knowing before anyone tries to bind a stored mount to this station.

What we corrected
Each of these changed a field in our own entry. The reasoning is the researcher's own, recorded when the change was made.

what it said before was not recorded; the
reasoning usually states it
|
The row held no homepage, so nothing correct is being discarded. The name resolves to a single operator in Trinidad and Tobago: Radio Tambrin 92.7FM, whose own site at https://tambrintobago.com/ states on its about page that it was founded on 8 June 1998 by George and Carol Leacock, calls itself Tobago's first radio station and "The Voice of Tobago", and publishes a street address in Scarborough, Tobago. Its own Programs page at https://tambrintobago.com/programs/ carries a full announcer schedule naming every shift, and its contact page at https://tambrintobago.com/contact/ carries a studio line, staffed hours of Monday to Sunday 8AM to 8PM, an email address and a WhatsApp chat widget. The site is written throughout in the operator's own first-person voice, not as a directory listing. One limit on this evidence, recorded so it can be answered later: the station publishes no direct audio stream address of its own, its "Live Stream" navigation item links out to a Streema listing and the only audio it embeds is a YouTube live channel, so I could not cross-check the row's stored stream_url against anything the station itself publishes. If that stored mount turns out to belong to a stream this operator does not reference, this homepage and the matching findings block must both be pulled. |

what it said before was not recorded; the
reasoning usually states it
|
The operator's own site is entirely in English: the about text, the contact page and the whole announcer grid on https://tambrintobago.com/programs/ are English, and so is every programme title on it (Sonrise, Wake Up Tobago, Virtual Function, The Afternoon Muscical Explosion, Turn It Up Loud, Platinum Power Saturdays, Give Him Praise, Mid Morning Sunday, Marathon Man). English is the official language of Trinidad and Tobago and nothing on the station's own pages indicates any other broadcast language. This correction rests on the same binding as the homepage correction filed above for this row and should be reversed with it if the stored stream turns out to belong to a different operation. |
What we found and did not publish
Material that would have made this page fuller, and was refused. A page with five named presenters looks better than a page with none even when the five are a website theme's demonstration content, and the difference is invisible to a reader. So it is recorded here instead.
| What we could have said | Why we did not |
|---|---|
| the claim that the roster above is the 2026 line-up | the grid on its own current Programs page is headed "Announcer Schedule 2025 updated August 11th", so what the station publishes today is a grid stamped with last year. I have published it as what the station currently publishes, not as what is on air this week.
source |
| a firm binding of our bare "TAMBRIN" row to this station | the name is unique in Trinidad and Tobago, the country matches and this is the only operator of that name, which is why I have filed the finding, but the row carries no homepage and I could not cross-check a stream because the station publishes none. The check that would close it: read the stored stream_url's icy-name and icy-url, and if it resolves to a mount the station does not reference, the row is a different stream and this block must be pulled.
source |
| the Happy Lost Sailors Band's own content | it has its own page on a separate subdomain and is a band the station promotes, not a radio programme.

If you think something here is wrong
Tell us which fact and what you found instead. Everything above names its source and its date, so a disagreement can be settled by looking rather than argued. Where another site disagrees with us, it is usually because it is repeating a radio directory, and occasionally because we got it wrong. We would like to know which.
Read from the station's own material; this page is generated from the
catalogue as it stands now, so it changes when the research does. Research
current as at 2026.
