[3] The station has a board of directors consisting of local community members and is incorporated as the non-profit Stu-Comm, Inc.[4] WNRN-FM has an adult album alternative (AAA) radio format.
WNRN-FM has a network of rebroadcasters and FM translators around Virginia, covering the Shenandoah Valley from Roanoke to Harrisonburg as well as Richmond, Williamsburg and Hampton Roads.
The main station has an effective radiated power (ERP) of 320 watts, with its transmitter at the Carter's Mountain antenna farm in Charlottesville.
[10] Although the main signal from Carters Mountain nominally has good coverage in the lower elevations to the east, including Richmond, interference from co-channel WGTS in Washington, D.C. cuts down on reception in those areas.
The action came concurrently with the FCC repeal of a longstanding rule prohibiting co-owned AM stations with substantial signal overlap from simulcasting each other.
[18] In 2022, Stu-Comm entered the Hampton Roads market with the purchase of WRJR (670 AM), which is licensed to Claremont in Surry County but has a signal powerful enough to cover the entire region during the day.
Locally produced specialty shows heard on weekends include Bluegrass Sunday Morning, Fresh Roots, New Blues, Les Temps Perdu and Grateful Dead and Phriends.
Outside of these shows, the station plays continuous adult album alternative music with live airstaff on duty from 6 a.m. to midnight daily.
Longtime "Acoustic Sunrise" host Anne Williams worked her last on-air shift on February 15, 2019, after a two-decade run as a cornerstone of the station's schedule.
