Great Classical Music Radio Can Now Be Heard at 93.7 FM

WAKE FOREST, N.C. — General Manager Deborah S. Proctor of WCPE is proud to announce that Kinston, N.C. is now part of the WCPE broadcast reach. Great Classical Music can now be heard 24/7 at 93.7 on the FM dial. The station launched its broadcast on February 25, 2008.

“Great Classical Music is alive and well in this country,” says Proctor. “WCPE has grown in reach and listenership steadily throughout its 30 year history.”

With the new transmitter relay in Kinston, classical music lovers can listen to WCPE at 93.7 FM anywhere within a 10-mile radius. Soon, Great Classical Music will be flowing out of radios in parks, backyards, at the pool and in the middle of traffic.

WCPE’s broadcast can be accessed around the world in several ways; on-line streaming in multiple formats, including IPv6, local cable television systems and traditional radio broadcasting. A complete list with instructions, as well as the details on how to retransmit WCPE without royalty or consideration, can be found at theclassicalstation.org/listen.shtml.
