Requested move

edit

Consensus was to move to North Carolina Public Radio instead. alerante  21:41, 14 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

Discussion

Oppose I disagree with the proposed move back to WUNC. I think that it would be more approriate to move this to North Carolina Public Radio as WUNC is the flagship station of the network and then keep this as a redirect to the new article as a probable serach term despite the official callsign not including the -FM.

Comment: So, that's an agreement on North Carolina Public Radio among all the interested parties? If I do the move, will one of you guys fix the redirects, etc? –Hajor 02:27, 14 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

Done, fixing links RN. alerante  21:04, 14 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

Discision

edit

It was requested that this article be renamed but there was no consensus for it to be moved. Ryan Norton T | @ | C 01:43, 15 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

So, is WUNC the flagship station of the network because it’s the only station in the network that isn’t a repeater station? Alien-in-residence (talk) 02:06, 11 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

Transmitter Locations

edit

There is a difference between the location of the transmitter and the market that transmitter covers. WUND-FM (located at WUND-TV/DT) is broadcast from west of Columbia (near Creswell) and not Manteo. —Preceding unsigned comment added by W4otn (talkcontribs) 18:14, 10 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

Founding date

edit

I got March 23, 1976, from this press release. If anyone actually has a date, feel free to stick it up in the infobox. alerante  21:37, 14 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

Transmitting Power

edit

I've been reading about some of the other area NC radio stations (such as WKNC 88.1 and WXYC 89.3) and most of them mention the transmitting power of each station. I think that is a good rough way to know what kind of area the station covers. I would propose that we include the output power of the NC Public Radio stations in this article. I am not sure of the best place to include that information though but it could fit after we list each transmitting frequency. You can find the information from the FCC here: NC Radio Stations

  • WUNC 91.5 - 100,000 watts
  • WRQM 90.9 - 7,500 watts
  • WUND 88.9 - 50,000 watts
