2010 FM Format Change
On July 1, 2010, Ohio State announced it was buying commercial station WWCD and converting it to a non-commercial classical music station. In turn, WOSU-FM dropped the remaining classical music from its schedule and became an NPR news/talk station simulcasting with WOSU-AM. However, the FM station will now be branded as the main station, under the moniker "89.7 FM NPR News." WWCD's existing format moved to 102.5 FM, and WOSU converted its four FM repeaters into repeaters of the new classical outlet to serve areas outside of Columbus not well served by the new 101.1 frequency.

Famous quotes containing the word change:
“A child... who has learned from fairy stories to believe that what at first seemed a repulsive, threatening figure can magically change into a most helpful friend is ready to believe that a strange child whom he meets and fears may also be changed from a menace into a desirable companion.”
—Bruno Bettelheim (20th century)
