After many delays, Greg Carter's WVRC station is on the air !
Appears to be throwing out a pretty good signal both northeast and southwest along I-79.
Good luck, Greg !

Does the new station have a website yet, so I can pull a logo off for a Wikipedia page?

And, for those of us who don't live in (or travel through) their signal area, what can you tell us about the station?

As I could tell listening yesterday on my way from Buckhannon to Charleston, then today from Charleston through Bluefield, the signal is smokin'...sounds to me like a full-service station with an AC music mix and lots of service elements. Seems like the only station in that area that has dynamic RDS as well, with song title and artist.

Yeah, all of Al's stations have RDS with the ID and slogan on them...noticed that 3WS has dynamic RDS with song title and artist scrolls.

The signal has some problems in the Fayetteville/Oak Hill area.

Where do people in Summersville go to buy cars, shop for dry goods, and find health care? Beckley.
