Turn On – Tune In: WCRS is on the
Air!!
Your Locally-Grown
Community Radio Station
Listen to 98.3 or 102.1 FM
3 to 8 pm Daily
Who are we? WCRS is one of two
stations sharing 102.1 FM:
WCRS
-
a project of Simply Living, broadcasting 3 p.m. to 8
p.m. daily.
WCRX - a project of Bexley
Public Radio Foundation, broadcasting 11 a.m. to 1
p.m., Monday through Friday.
Why two frequencies? We are a “low
power” stations, meaning we broadcast at a low wattage.
People in northeastern Franklin County can hear us on
102.1 FM. Elsewhere, tune into 98.3 FM, a “translator”
station owned by Columbus Institute for Contemporary
Journalism. 98.3 broadcasts with more wattage and is
more centrally located. (By FCC rules a translator
station only rebroadcasts another station.)
What is our program format?
Current: Pacifica Network programming:
View our schedule. Don’t miss Democracy Now!--a
national, daily, independent, award-winning news
program, representing the largest public media
collaboration in the U.S, airing at 3 pm and again at
7 pm.
Future: Expand our broadcast hours to 24/7 and
offer locally-grown programming. Join us for community
radio for Central Ohio!
