WUSO

WUSO (89.1 FM) was a student-run college radio station broadcasting an Album Oriented Rock radio format. License to Springfield, Ohio. Its studios are located in the basement of Firestine Hall on Woodlawn Ave. The radio station broadcast throughout the Springfield area. The studio had two music production booths, a music library, a technician's office, and an executive office. The radio station went through an upgrade on its website to allow for streaming audio. The station is owned by the Board of Directors of Wittenberg College.[1][2] For the past 12 months, due to environmental issues in the station's studios, WUSO has only been able to broadcast the shared signal from WDPR, Dayton Ohio. University officials have been unable to reach a decision on the future of the station at this time.
