If you are a regular listener, you already know that lately we have been plagued by service interruptions. Quite simply, we are at the mercy of Verizon who provide our internet service. Trust me when I tell you that we are vexed by this issue and are working on solutions. Our tower location does not […]
We love hearing from our listeners and finding out what you like or don’t like on WWER. To help us improve, we’re asking you to fill out our new survey. It should only take a few minutes and will help guide on on future programming decisions. Thanks! Please visit https://wwer.org/survey/
I’m happy to say we are continuing to get good local publicity about WWER. This week, we are featured in the Fredericksburg Free Lance-Star. It’s a very nice article and hopefully it will make more people aware that we exist! We’ve certainly gotten some good word of mouth publicity, and if you like us, I […]
For those of you who have been listening from the beginning, you may recall we got knocked off the air 3 days after we started! 3 days after that, we were back on the air with a loaner transmitter as we sent ours out to be repaired. But I would not blame you for forgetting […]
Colonial Beach Community Radio includes the Colonial Beach Community Foundation (CBCF) on its list of sponsors. But make no mistake, the Colonial Beach Community Foundation is much more than a “sponsor” of WWER. For 2019, the foundation is the entity holding the FCC license for the station. More importantly, CBCF has provided a substantial contribution […]
At about 8:00am this morning (Thu June 6th), WWER returned to the air with our replacement transmitter. It appears that our signal is significantly stronger than it was over the weekend — with a reach of nearly 10 miles! So that’s awesome. What’s a little less awesome are the occasional drop outs we’re having. We […]
Transmitter Troubles Being Addressed To Our WWER Listeners: On Monday morning, the WWER staff decided to take forthright corrective action to ensure the weak / disappearing FM signal problem gets resolved once and for all. To do that, we made the tough choice to go off the air on only our third day of operation. […]
While we had a great launch and lots of people have congratulated us on a job well done, the one thorn in our side is that we have had a bit of down time in our first day on the air. Our transmitter seems to be having some problems and cuts off now and then […]
Welcome to YOUR radio station. Tune to 88.1 FM and enjoy! At midnight Friday night, WWER went on the air – live! Ted, Charlie, Dave L, and Tom said a few words to mark the occassion. We clinked our champagne glasses and engaged our automation system to carry us through our first week. You can […]
This afternoon, our station manager Ted Tait and several of his minions performed the first end-to-end test of Colonial Beach Community Radio. The computer in our Chamber of Commerce studio, sent a demo play list audio stream to the tower and out over the airwaves. When that happened, three middle-aged men were jumping and high-fiving […]
