WPSU (FM)

With transmitters located throughout the region, WPSU-FM now serves over 450,000 listeners [1] in 13 central counties of the Commonwealth, 24 hours a day.[3] The primary goal of WDFM was to provide a hands-on learning experience for students interested in radio communications, but it also strove to serve the community with unique programming.The radio station enjoyed quite a bit of popularity (and even controversy) in its early days, with certain DJs (including future faculty adviser Robert Zimmerman) opting to play cutting-edge artists such as Elvis Presley when doing so was not widely deemed acceptable.According to Scott Hower, a Radio TV major who was a DJ and the Chief Engineer from 1971 - 1974, rock was played in the evenings starting around 1970.(On occasion the national / international news would be missing from the wire, likely taken by someone with a current events project due, and the newscast would be limited to the agricultural report.
