[edit]

WMTD relays its programming to an FM translator is order to improve coverage, especially at night when the AM frequency reduces power to only 13 watts. The translator also gives the advantage of FM broadcasting with its improved high fidelity stereophonic sound. The 98.3 frequency is in fact the primary branding used on the station logo.
