Dear listeners. It is with a heavy heart that am here to tell you that our friend Charlie Wilson has died today. Charlie’s official title at this radio station was “operations manager“, but that doesn’t begin to count the ways that Charlie contributed to WWER. In simple terms, Charlie “kept the trains running on time” […]
Dear listeners, Our automation system that runs our programming has developed a problem. Please bear with us as we work on repairing it. There may be moments of silence at times, and the music and announcements will be a bit different as we work on it. Computers are great…. when they work! Right now, ours […]
I’m happy to announce that streaming WWER is now an Amazon Alexa “Skill”! Once you have enabled this skill on your Amazon account, you can tell any of your Alexa devices “Alexa, Play WWER” and you will hear our stream. If you need help adding the skill, here is how. ON YOUR COMPUTER If […]
At WWER we are always looking to improve… Our streaming service has been popular, and we wanted to make it better, so we have switched streaming providers. If you have programmed our old stream address into your Sonos or browser favorites, you’ll want to change that soon. Our new stream address is easy to remember […]
https://tinyurl.com/WWER2020 It’s hard to believe, but June 1 marks a whole year since we went on air! I’m proud of what our all volunteer staff have accomplished in that year. Great music, interesting specialty shows, interviews with interesting citizens and town officials about town news and events. At 88.1FM, our schedule has something for everyone, […]
We’re always trying to improve what’s on WWER. A few months ago, we decided it was time to give our sound a Spring cleaning. On Sunday, we will flip the switch on those changes! Rest assured that we are not dramatically changing who we are. This is more of a course correction. We will continue […]
I’m really glad that our Porch Talk show has been so popular. Sometimes the simple ideas are the best ones. For those who don’t already know, Porch Talk is a casual conversation where we get to know one of our neighbors here in Colonial Beach a bit better. Our town is full of interesting people […]
Happy New Year everyone! WWER is off to a good start for 2020. Our Membership Program is up and running with people joining to show their support, and we are now streaming! There is a lot of work that went into getting the stream service up and working, and more work as we have to […]
It’s our first season for WWER and we have a few nice things planned. But before I mention them, I wanted to let you know that we’ve been doing work to make our signal more reliable. Our studio to transmitter link is now more reliable than it was, and we have a backup system in […]
I’m happy to report that we had Verizon come to take a look at things, and our intermittent problem reared its ugly head while the technician was there, making it much easier to track the cause! He made some repairs to our service, and things have been much more reliable since then. Here’s hoping they […]
