WFCR

WFCR is a U.S. radio station operating at 88.5 MHz in the FM band.

It is located at the University of Massachusetts Amherst in Amherst, Massachusetts and its broadcasting range extends to western and central Massachusetts, northern Connecticut and southern Vermont and New Hampshire. A NPR member, WFCR's studios are currently located at Hampshire House on the UMass campus, but the station will be moving most of its operations to Springfield in 2013.

The station signed on May 6, 1961 as a repeater of WGBH in Boston, but soon added its own programming. The call letters represent Five College Radio. The station is licensed to UMass, but operated by funding from the Five Colleges (Smith College, Mount Holyoke College, Amherst College, Hampshire College, and UMass itself). WFCR bills itself as New England Public Radio.

WFCR claims the distinction of being the first radio station in western Massachusetts to transmit a signal using iBiquity's HD Radio system.They transmit two digital streams, the first being their standard programming (including locally originated material), the second being primarily NPR programming and classical music.
