Requested move[edit]

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

Discussion[edit]

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.

Whatever, works for me. WUNC-FM is a bad title is all. alerante ✆ 20:58, 24 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

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 (talk • contribs) 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
