Another Station Changes Format

WETS-FM is changing formats to news and information. The reasons given by Station Manager Wayne Winkler include:
  • Fulfill the mission of the university and of WETS-FM
  • The best interest of the station, its listeners, and its financial future
  • Fewer people are tuning to radio for music
  • Offering the community a dependable news source
More information about the change is included in an article published today by TriCities.com

There are two big reasons. They are improved community service and financial stability.
And...This does present the opportunity for somebody else to adopt the Classical and Americana formats.
