WOMR / WFMR UPDATE

Plans continue for getting the new transmitter in Brewster by the SBA tower, and for installing two antennas on the tower to broadcast our signal down the rest of the Cape.  The site will broadcast our regular WOMR programming, but will do so under the call letters, WFMR (further most radio, we like to say; in contrast to the outer most radio of our P-town call letters), at 91.3 on your FM dial.  

We still are optimistically seeking a begin broadcasting date of early summer.  A kickoff party for the repeater is in the works, for September 18th, in Harwich, in which we debut our new logo for WOMR/WFMR, 92.1/91.3FM, and celebrating our programming to the Upper Cape.  It will be a full day of fun and music, food and drink.
