WEMC (91.7 FM) is a classical music formatted broadcast radio station licensed to Harrisonburg, Virginia, serving Harrisonburg and Rockingham County, Virginia.
[4] Due to declining listenership and low student involvement, James Madison University's WMRA (90.7 FM) took over operation of WEMC on January 14, 2008.
[5] WMRA moved its morning, midday, and late-night classical music blocks to WEMC in exchange for NPR's Talk of the Nation and Fresh Air, which had been heard on WEMC as WMRA was unable to fit them into its schedule.
[6] WEMC dropped its last remaining information programs, Democracy Now!
There are local hosts only on Monday and Tuesday evening ("Bob's Record Shelf" and "Air Play", the latter featuring regional orchestras), with the rest of the music largely coming from the syndicated Classical 24.
