WFCR-HD Western Massachusetts' First
"HD" Digital Radio Station
On November 9th, 2004, WFCR launched WFCR-HD into the world. WFCR-HD is a new form of digital radio.
Utilizing state of the art digital broadcasting methods, WFCR-HD's digital signal actually is embedded in our transmission at 88.5 on your dial.
You will need a special HD Radio receiver in order to decode WFCR-HD.
HD Radio delivers very high quality stereo audio, and eliminates the effects of "picket-fencing" and static caused by signal reflections in areas with hilly terrain.
WFCR-HD will gently blend back to standard FM in your receiver should the digital signal become unstable in areas far away from our transmitter location.
