WFPL (89.3 MHz) is a 24-hour listener-supported, noncommercial FM radio station in Louisville, Kentucky.
[2] WFPL's transmitter is off Moser Knob Road in New Albany, Indiana, amid the towers for other Louisville-area FM and TV stations.
Founded years before the Public Broadcasting Act of 1967 and National Public Radio's creation in 1970,[2] the station was made possible by the donation of equipment by the Bingham family, who owned The Courier-Journal and WHAS (840 AM) radio at the time.
By the 1980s, WFPL had evolved into a typical full-service NPR member station, airing a mix of news, talk, jazz, bluegrass, and blues.
Starting on January 8, 1996; WFPL ceded almost all of its remaining music programming to WFPK, becoming an NPR news talk station.
