WCRS LP (low power) FM, Columbus’s Community Radio Station, began streaming its signal on the internet at midnight January 1, 2009. This new service simulcasts the radio station’s daily 13 hours of FM programming and will offer web-only broadcasting for the additional 11 hours of the day at www.wcrsfm.org. WCRS is Central Ohio's only community radio station. The station broadcasts from 6am-9am and 3pm-1am on 102.1 and 98.3 FM and can be picked up through most of Franklin County. WCRS is a service of Simply Living and a Pacifica affiliate airing Democracy Now!, Free Speech Radio News and other syndicated public affairs programs in addition to locally made music, talk, and public affairs programs in English, French, Somali, and Spanish.

WVKO AM 1580 has changed hands. The new ownership of this Columbus station has entirely different programming. Air America is gone, and Harvey Wasserman’s Solartopia radio program, which was written about in our Nov./Dec. issue, is unfortunately no longer on the air.
