Western's Public Radio is the public radio service of Western Kentucky University in Bowling Green, Kentucky. It is a division of the Department of Information Technology at WKU, broadcasting a mix of classical music and news/talk programming from National Public Radio.
The network consists of five stations, all simulcasting the same programming at all times:
- WKYU-FM (88.9, Bowling Green, flagship station)
- WKPB-FM (89.5, Henderson/Owensboro; also serves Evansville, Indiana)
- WDCL-FM (89.7, Somerset)
- WKUE-FM (90.9, Elizabethtown)
- W277AA-FM (103.3, Somerset)
Together, the five stations serve one of the largest coverage areas in the nation, reaching 65% of Kentucky, including the fringes of the Louisville and Lexington areas. The stations also serve portions of Indiana, Illinois and Tennessee.
WKYU-FM signed on for the first time on January 14, 1980. WDCL followed on February 22, 1983; WKPB on April 20, 1989, WKUE on June 1, 1990, and W277AA in 1993. Prior to Western Public Radio's sign-on, the only portion of the coverage area that had a clear signal from an NPR station was Henderson and Owensboro, which received NPR programming from WNIN-FM in Evansville.
