WVUD Power Increase!

Congratulations to WVUD 91.3 FM "the Voice of the University of Delaware" our campus radio station has increased power from 1,000 to 6,800 watts! Click on the headline to read UDaily article. This has taken several years from planning to implementation today and involved many more steps than most people realize. While already reaching much of New Castle County as well as some of Pa. and Md., the power increase should enable the station to be picked up north of Wilmington and south to Middletown. (6,800 watts doesn't actually make it 6.8 times further... but it will go further and be stronger in some areas.) There is some interaction between us and WVUD, for example this morning a class was here who will be using digital voice recorders to record interviews for broadcast on WVUD. The station uses Audacity for recording promotional ads and shows too, so it's possible station members could do some recording here if the WVUD studio is booked. Two of us, Matt Wolfson and myself, are involved in the station. By the way, students are always welcome to become a part of WVUD, as it's a student organization, even though there are also non-students involved, ask me if you're interested.
